Illegal File Sharing

Illegal peer-to-peer file sharing of copyrighted music and movies is an issue that many colleges and universities have wrestled with in recent years. Did you know that your son or daughter could be prosecuted in criminal court and sued for damages in civil court for this kind of activity?
