Partiot Act Implications

I don't know the details from the FBI's perspective, but check this out.

"Federal charges were filed against Adam McGaughey, creator of the popular SG1Archive.com website - a fan website devoted to the MGM-owned television show Stargate SG-1. The charges allege that the website engaged in Criminal Copyright Infringement and Trafficking in Counterfeit Service." As part of the investigation, it turns out that "the FBI invoked a provision of the USA Patriot Act to obtain financial records from his ISP."
