Stanford To Charge Reconnect Fee For DMCA Notices

theantipop writes "Stanford didn't like appearing on the MPAA's list of 25 worst offenders. Last week the university issued notice of a new policy in which students are charged a reconnection fee, ranging from $100 to $1000, if they fail to respond quickly enough to a DMCA complaint. The policy is to take effect September 1 this year. As a show of 'good faith' they are graciously allowing all students to start at the $100 fee level for subsequent notices."

YES INDEEDY! The next presidential election will hinge heavily on the pro-student, anti-student issue. Like you I am very anti-student and hope they all go to Mexico or Canadia soon.
