IWT Bans RIAA From Accessing Its Network
August 19, 2002

Information Wave Technologies has announced it will actively deny the
Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) from accessing the contents
of its network. Earlier this year, the RIAA announced its new plan to access
computers without owner's consent for the sake of protecting its assets.
Information Wave believes this policy puts its customers at risk of
unintentional damage, corporate espionage, and invasion of privacy to say
the least.
