When will these idiots learn? I see this going down the same route the war on drugs has taken. Lots of harmless people going to prison, and very little success in actually stopping illicit activities. At least it seems unlikely to produce dangerous organized crime, as the prohibition and the war on drugs produced, but who knows?

The better solution would be for companies that produce music/films/software/etc to revise their own buisness models and adapt to the reality of piracy. Heck, some companies, like Adobe for example, probably -profit- off their product being pirated.

I much prefer the anti-ACTA. Overall, these days we probably need more protection from the companies, than they need from us.
