While Rogers has the right and duty to block illegal P2P activity on its system...
Bullshit.
An ISP has the right to set the terms of the service as they see fit. Whether they have the "duty" is whole other discussion, I believe that if you give internet accesss, you should give full access and not just partial.

Nevertheless, an ISP has the right to do whatever they please with their service, and if you don't agree with their terms, they probably won't mind at all if you move to a different ISP.

George W. Bush on Clinton going into Kosovo, 1999: “I think it’s also important for the president to lay out a timetable as to how long they will be involved and when they will be withdrawn.”

Right. We're still waiting for that Mr. Bush....

To a point. You can't have your blanket legal indemnity and OCD too.

Within the law. Privacy is onerous and regulation an unforgiving matron.
