The RIAA has been nominated by the Internet Services Providers' Association (ISPA UK) for the "Internet Villian of the Year Award." According to their website The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA): ‘for supporting "right to hack" proposals and other unworkable solutions to curb copyright abuse’

Funny . . . I would've nominated the RIAA for the "Joseph Stalin Memorial Award for Commitment to Civil Liberties" -- if such a category existed.
