Why wouldn't it be?
Cops have to have a warrant to search someone's house. They have to have probable cause. So why is it okay for a record company to start searching someone's personal computer (which is at their home), without a warrant or probable cause? Especially the warrant. Without the warrant, the search can be rendered illegal.
And it sounds like the record companies are hacking into your computer via elsewhere, so therefore they aren't getting a warrant (because they aren't physically showing up to your home, with the warrant in hand and confiscating your computer).
I get that they want to stop piracy. I don't blame them. But breaking the law and then sueing someone isn't cool.
