Quote - But what do I know - I'm a borderline anarchist anyway.....

Well Mike I can see from that statement right there that neither you nor I are going to agree on this. I find Anarchy to be much more dangerous than laws. End of story mate.

I wasn't talking forcing ISP's to keep the records. Just the sites administering the transaction. Every torrent site I've been to you've had to create an account to upload a torrent to them. Those are the records I'm talking about keeping and sharing with law enforcement. They also have records of the IP addresses of the uploaders.

I still say, stop the uploaders and you stop the crime. Anyway, I've said my piece on what I think the solution is. You don't have to agree with me, but criminalizing the administration of the sites that make file sharing available seems to be much more dangerous to me than what I've suggested.
