Except that if the RIAA has their way, if they win the duel they are OK, and if the other guy wins, they get arrested.
Although, if their legislation passed, our hypothetical black-hat could write a copyrighted document, put RIAA's address in his Outlook address book, "accidentally" infect himself with SIRCAM, allowing SIRCAM to send the document to the RIAA. Then he could burn down every bit of data in the RIAA's machines in an attempt to remove his copyrighted material.
(no, it would never work; laws like this are always interpreted to help only those who paid for them)
