Honestly, get a grip, and put down the piracy Kool-Aid

as many open-source projects show, open source apps have WAY more people working on them, and embrace outside help, the end result of which is that those apps end up being light-years ahead of closed-source apps.
A couple of corps working on "intelligent" inspection techniques is no match for a worldwide cooperative effort that has the capability to turn out bug fixes/improvements on a daily basis. You just have way more people looking at the code, and editing it.

End moral of story:
Let Big Brother/Uncle Sam do the policing/net nanny honors. ISP's should be protected from any liability from the music industry, and be nothing more than 'dumb pipe' providers.
And, on a side note, file transfer protocols have been around since the birth of the 'net. In the 90's, it was FTP. Now, it's p2p. So get over the paranoia, and adapt to the times. New times, new demands, new rules. Get a grip, **AA.
