fileshareing is for college students

so i was checking stuff out and came acourse ppl talking about a new law about file sharing and happened to come acouse this story about college filesharers that in effect show that a new law on file sharing on campuses — in short, it may not make much difference.
"Students who are about to graduate often hand down the tricks of
stealing music and movies to the next senior class... At the College of
New Jersey, that means surreptitiously finding a new home each year for a
computer holding an enormous directory of illegal files on the campus.
... The machine runs software called Direct Connect, which lets people on
a local network easily trade files among their hard drives in a way that
is usually undetectable to anyone outside the network. ... Educause
recently unveiled a website with information about the new regulations.
It provides case studies from six 'role-model campuses,' listing the
steps they are taking to combat piracy. Another page lists 57 legal
sources of music and movies on the Web. But when asked which campuses
have forged new policies in reaction to the law, Educause officials were
unable to name any."
