In this episode of the podcast, Chris is joined by Professor Alfred Yen from Boston College Law School to discuss a pivotal case involving Cox Communications and copyright infringement. 

The conversation centers on whether Internet Service Providers (ISPs) should be held responsible when their subscribers engage in illegal downloading of music.

They explore the complex legal questions surrounding ISP liability, the potential consequences for smaller ISPs, and how this could reshape the relationship between copyright holders and service providers. 

Professor Yen provides insight into the impact this case could have on Internet users and ISPs, especially as the music industry seeks to make ISPs financially accountable for their subscribers' actions.

The episode also touches on broader concerns about how cutting off Internet access could affect critical services like healthcare and business operations, making this a pressing issue with far-reaching implications.
