The big question is can they warning strong enough to stop piracy ?
The only people who they find that pirate content are the people who download from popular torrents and seed forever. Can't tell with sites like mediafire, 4shared etc.
They've been warning people for years. I've got it a few times. It's telling you that you have been caught. ISP gets the info from copyright holder or the agency working for them. The copyright holder only has your IP address, so they have to contact the ISP to get your name and address. Most of the time they will just send warning. The only thing the ISP will do is cancel your service.
Um most peeps that use torrents \joe average/ will hear about things such as tor and vpn and will start using those. Do they really think they cannstop this,people can send small files via email etc. its up to the consumer to think wot they listen or watch is good enuff or liket enuff to support there fav singer or director and pay for it.
The problem of privacy, though, comes into play, and I have a feeling that this will be challenged immediately.
What will they consider piracy, for one?
How will they monitor? How will they monitor it?
What info is going to be looked at? How much of it?
Are my browsing habits going to be judged?
To what extent will they go to stop things, assuming I did anything at all?
I'm sure there are some other questions, too, but bottom line is that I don't want some ISP snooping around, looking at my private info because they suspect something, or whatever. And to be able to do this, they pretty much would have to monitor things "all day, every day", which is a red flag.
Sad thing is, most people who are "anti-piracy" will not even think of, or if they're thinking actually encourage, the destruction of online privacy to fight things they know nothing about or don't know how to fix. This will be challenged pretty quickly by those who know better.
