Washington – The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has settled charges against a website operator who claimed the file-sharing network tutorial he was selling was "100 percent legal." The FTC sued Cashier Myricks in September 2005 for selling his $24.95 tutorial, which did not contain file-sharing software, but taught users how to download music and movies for free using popular programs. The settlement calls for Myricks to refund over $15,000 to more than 600 customers. It also bars misrepresentations about file-sharing products or services, and requires that the operator disclose the civil and criminal liability risks of downloading copyrighted material without the owner's permission.
