RIAA president: No talk of blacklisting file sharers | Digital Media - CNET News

The RIAA has announced that it will no longer be pursuing lawsuits against people they allege are engaged in illegal file-sharing. Instead, they are negotiating agreements with ISPs to send emails to those they claim are engaged in this activity. After three warnings, the ISP would then shut down the user's Internet access. RIAA president Cary Sherman describes this as a change in philosophy from litigation to deterrent.
