Linux blunder Down Under could land MPAA in court (ZDNET)
The MPAA is out with their automated bots looking for files that happen to have a keyword that might be in a movie. In this case, they sent DMCA takedown notices for TWO open source projects in Australia, supposedly for the movies
"twisted"
and
"grind"
. Of course, as we know, they like to do that without checking anything. Apparently, it's illegal to do this in Australia.

Don't trust on bots, they're stupid
They should use IT specialists from India instead.
