RIAA initiative not limited to campus network users

Some on-campus Ohio University students recently have been targeted by the Recording Industry Association of America for illegally downloading music, but the RIAA’s initiative doesn’t end at the edges of campus.

The initiative, launched in February, targets the more than half of college students who download music illegally, the RIAA reports.

Students who live in the University Courtyard Apartments, which has access to the OU campus network and Internet, are subject to the same RIAA lawsuits as students who live in residence halls.

But for about 8,000 OU students who live elsewhere off campus, a similar lawsuit could be filed.
