How could you not know

I just found someone who did not know that trading MP3 files was illegal. It surprised me. Last week he was all excited about how he now had a cable connection for his computer and could now work on his web site faster. And a little over a week later he's paranoid about being subpoenaed. It's a complete 180. When I asked him how he thought the files got there he said he just hadn't thought about it. He thought it was great and that it had been explained to him that everyone just shared their music, end of story. The funny thing is that the person who installed the cable modem showed him the site. He believed that if they had a web site they had to be legitimate.
