One Step Backwards

Wrong direction ISPs. The only way they should justify policing the internet is if they have a monetary stake in the entertainment company.

Other than that, this will lead to frivlous lawsuits that last years and cost the taxpayer money. The solution is for the entertainment industry to adapt; and distribute material easily, and through a cheaper mean.

Which Comcast now does as they spent however much money to buy one of the poorest excuses for an "entertainment" company in the modern era.

I think the only logical solutions going forward are end to end IPsec of all traffic going across the internet. I'm no pirate, but I do use torrents now and again when I need the latest Linux ISO. An ISP has no business looking at the contents of my packets.

Step backwords for a company who now produces content and shows it to now try and protect it! Yes as a consumer it stinks to pay for it but if you dont want to pay... than dont watch it. The answer shouldnt be to go against the law but instead to correct the process.

This method, as described, does not monitor your traffic but only monitors a session that it establishes with you to verify what you are doing. IOW: It does not look at your in-flight traffic but creates its own traffic to you to show what occurred during THAT session. This is the equivalent of the difference between tapping your phone line to listen in on your conversations and placing a call to your phone and recording that specific conversion [of which you are one of the two parties].

So, they are rattling the door of your house then, or just shinning s flashlight in to see if your a criminal?

Just curious, if the RIAA, or the MPAA wants to check my home, can they just walk through and look?

So, they will scan everyone's computer, looking for theft? Curious, the data they send, and the data I send back from my Comcast connection, do I pay for it? Does it count against my 250 Gig limit?

IPsec won't help. They will be a peer on the network and also use IPsec. You won't know it is them connecting.

IMO, They should never try to justify policing the internet. Just give me a connection. Nothing more. I don't want people watching what I do.
