How they Going to Know

How are they going to know what you downloaded is legit or not?

If anyone can answer please tell. If there is no real answer then whats the point of the law? I mean seriously. They would have to have some type of checking going on to tell if its been bought legally or not, so how does this program work?

My best guess now that I think about it is that they are going to develop and maintain a database of content that is known to be infringing on copyright. For example by scouring Bittorrent trackers and other such websites then nabbing the users who download the flagged files.

There is no other way this would work without risking false positives, which would be completely unacceptable for a system like this.
