“No. I don't believe that technology should be restricted based on what it could be used for. I think that's short-sighted.”

“I don't think they should. I just don't think it's their right to do that.”
— Caitlin Dixon, sales associate, Lawrence
“No. I don't think they should stop it completely, but I do think they should be able to look at what you are downloading to catch people who are doing it illegally.”
— Richard Demby, Lincoln College freshman, Lawrence
“I would say just let them do it. It's the students' choice whether or not they download illegally.”
