Re: Catch 22?

So what? Just visiting a site is not illegal, unless it is a child porn site.

Bush bashing is old. How about more solutions instead?

It just depends on how much of records the MPAA might get from their servers. If it's just IP addresses, then no biggy. However, if they're able to track down files accessed, IPs, etc. (ie. the full kabang), they'd know who downloaded what and when.

...course, having records indicating that you downloaded X bootleg files isn't 100% proof of anything - but seeing as how you'd be in a civil court, they just need to prove a case to 50%+ of the jury.

They might call it "conspiracy to commit copyright infringement" if you just visit the website.
