Spanish professor canned for advocating P2P

Jorge Cortell at the lecture which got him firedJorge Cortell, a professor at Spain's Design Engineering Superior College, claims he was forced to resign by the college for presenting a lecture on the benefits of P2P. Cortell says the Spanish Recording Industry Association put pressure on the college by threatening them with software audits, and that after forcing him out, the college went on to deny that he had ever taught there. "When are we going to do something about it?" Cortell says in his blog. "We can't let them impose their failed, outdated, and inefficient business model through threats, pressures and silence."
