The Register finds itself in a flap for saying that "the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) has mounted a daring raid on the US Navy" in the seizure of cadet computers held to be containing downloaded MP3s. "At no time did we demand that the Naval Academy confiscate computers," writes RIAA representative Amy Weiss. From what I've seen of the RIAA's tactics, including their endorsement of the Thursday seizure of a hundred cadets' computers, it is Weiss's contention, not the Register's, that skirts the boundaries of truth.
