| May 9, 2012 | Congress Begins To Wonder Why ICE & DOJ Censored A Popular Hip Hop Blog For A Year | We already discussed the RIAA’s attempt to downplay its role in helping the feds seize and censor the popular hiphop blog Dajaz1.com. It seems the feds are also trying to brush this off as if it’s nothing important. According to a comment t... |
| May 8, 2012 | RIAA Tries To Downplay Its Role In The Feds' Unjustifiable Censorship Of Dajaz1 | Last week, we had the story about the unsealing of the court records in the Dajaz1.com case. That revealed that the main reason why the feds (almost certainly illegally) held onto the domain name for over a year was that ICE had asked the R... |
| May 3, 2012 | Judge Lets Feds Censor Blog For Over A Year So The RIAA Could Take Its Sweet Time | You may recall a few months ago, that we broke the story about how the US government seized and censored the hiphop blog Dajaz1.com for over a year, before suddenly giving it back with no explanation or apology.

| Feb 29, 2012 | If Major Labels Are All About Helping Artists, Why Do We Keep Seeing Artists Calling Out Their Labels For Screwing Them? | It still really amazes me that anyone takes the major labels or the RIAA seriously when they make claims about how they’re doing what they do to help artists. The labels have a long and detailed track record of screwing over artists at ever... |
| Feb 27, 2012 | Wale: I Just Want To Make Music & Give It To Fans For Free… They'll Support Me | This is from a few weeks back, but I’m catching up on some older posts. We’ve been talking lately about how fans will support artists they like, and focusing on connecting with those fans by being open, human and awesome is a better strateg... |
| Feb 20, 2012 | Universal Music Album Recalled… For Infringing Content? | Probably the most aggressive major record label, when it comes to supporting ridiculously overaggressive attacks on infringement and things like taking down websites, would be Universal Music — the company whose ex-CEO once gleefully declar... |
| Feb 15, 2012 | More Details Emerge On Questionable UK Seizure Of Music Blog | Yesterday we wrote about the bizarre seizure of a music blog, RnBXclusive.com, by UK law enforcement officials. Many people doubted that it was real, given the insanity of the splash page that SOCA — the UK’s Serious Organized Crime Agency ... |
