Two interesting side effects

1) People sitting on the fence about pirating now have a green light to pirate until they get a notice in the mail.

2) Are you "banned for life"? Sure, there's getting kicked off of "your ISP" but is the sentence a life sentence? Can you resubscribe at a later time? Are you put on an Orwellian blacklist and banned from all broadband everywhere? Does everyone in your household get denied broadband forever?

That would be sooooo cool.

that would pretty much be impossible since the ISP has no way to know the SSNs of other people in the house. so if the kid moves out it would be impossible for him to be blacklisted since his SSN was never on the services.

of course the fact everything in life is locked to SSNs is a whole different issue that needs to be resolved well before we worry about non economy effecting things like The Pirate Bay.
