Not defending 6 strike policy, but

if you make it to the 6th strike you really suck at pirating stuff.

I hope they realize that people don't have 15MB,30MB and higher connections just to watch youtube videos. Just like those conair massage wands aren't for aching backs.

Tobacco company execs at least have (a very little bit of) compassion. Still several orders more than cable execs.

Smokers die, Copyright infringers should only get sued. I dont think jailtime is necessary.

not even really strikes only DMCA take down requests which isnt even an admission of guilt in any way

some one you dont like use Mediacom just send some fake DMCA letters ...
they dont even check if there legit or not

Yea, Im breaking laws all the time, howd you guess. Any laws I break are accidental. eg, possibly speeding. I never willfully break the law like these people (you) do. Knowing something is wrong, and doing it anyway, is bullshit.

The ISP stops annoying you. Then the RIAA & MPAA starts suing you with all the info they now have on you from the ISP.
