May 6, 2004 (NY Post) -- The Federal Trade Commission may wade into the battle on illegal file sharing.

A group of senators recently sent a letter to the FTC asking the commission to investigate "peer-to-peer networks" and, in particular, their ability to let users swap pornographic files over the Internet.

The letter notes that a federal court recently found that certain publishers and distributors of file-sharing software "may have intentionally structured their businesses to avoid secondary liability for copyright infringement, while benefiting financially from the illicit draw of their wares."

The letter notes the increase in pornography and child pornography on peer-to-peer networks, in addition to the swapping of music files.

I can't believe they are still trying to figure this whole "Internet Thing" out years later.
