NewYorkCountryLawyer writes "MIT's online newspaper, "The Tech", reports that a student named as a "John Doe" by the RIAA is planning to fight back. The anonymous student told The Tech that he is "the victim of a fishing expedition by the RIAA," and is "disappointed that MIT isn't going to step up.... Other schools like Boston University and the University of Oregon have resisted RIAA subpoenas of student records more actively than MIT has, he said". Maybe his attorneys will be able to get some assistance from some of the Harvard Law School students in Professor Nesson's "Evidence" class, who have been assigned — as part of their coursework — the drafting of a motion to quash an RIAA subpoena (See "RIAA and University" under "Guilt beyond reasonable doubt")."
