| Other Repercussions The couple of high profile "Cyberbulling" cases could make this whole idea bad for ISP's. For civil matters if these ISP's are supposed to keep "illegal material" from traversing their networks they could also be held responsible for other non P2P stuff going on, like message board postings causing people to commit crimes. If they are held responsible for this they should be responsible to make sure no illegal stuff happens over their connection. A couple of lawsuits should straighten it out to make ISP seek shelter in the dump pipe theory. |

If ISPs are filtering my connection for illegal material, then they are responsible if a virus infects my computer. If they let it through, then it must be ok, right? |

as far as i know it's illegal to impersonate a cop
Deep packet inspection is also illegal as as it volates (The Fourth Amendment)
The Fourth Amendment specifies that any warrant must be judicially sanctioned for a search or an arrest, in order for such a warrant to be considered reasonable. Warrants must be supported by probable cause and be limited in scope according to specific information supplied by a person (usually a peace officer ) who has sworn by it and is therefore accountable to the issuing court. |
