At first I thought this was nothing more than a joke created by a third grader considering the atrocious website design, but it turns out to be the real deal. The RIAA has just launched a website that allows people to settle their lawsuits online. Not only is this convenient for the students and little kids targeted by the RIAA, it also streamlines the RIAA’s extortion process and probably saves a few trees as well. Plus, they take Mastercard, VISA, and Discover. What’s not to love? They even have a nice FAQ page where they answer questions such as:

How are P2P copyright infringers identified for lawsuits?
They are initially identified by their Internet Protocol (IP) address – the Internet address that the computer uses to communicate.

which seems to fit in nicely with their privacy statement:

This Web Site collects… non-personally identifiable information (for example, this can include your domain name, browser version, service provider, and/or IP address).

Brilliant.
