This is the thing .. the goverment jumps down our throat about 2257 and protecting kids ... where is the docmention for bit torrent sites? a 12 year old can go on any of those networks and get it for free.
No doubt they will use the standard 'We are not responsible for what users upload' cop-out. However, an easy way to solve this would be to have all uploaders register before they could upload anything, probably with some sort of no-charge credit card verification so that they know that the user is over 18, and also where they live. If said user chooses to upload copyrighted material, then the copyright holder will be able to find out exactly where to get a hold of them.
2257 IS NOT about protecting kids. It's about harassing porn producers. Period.
IMPORTANT: No law enforcement body on this blue rock will waste any time defending the property rights of pornographers unless by doing so they get to prosecute a person they despise even more! [like with the Mitchell Bros and the mob.]
And, tell me how you are going to get an effective law or search warrant executed - US, EU or otherwise - to trace IPs of customers of a SWISS company??
