Ya.. I understand why they are doing it. They have to do something, but I just can't see it ever being fully removed from society. If I download off a network that has 20+ people on it, how the hell are they ever going to be able to pin it on one person?

Want to torrent? Go to Macdonalds and use their free wifi for half hour. Get your weekly stuff done... how do they combat this?

Edit: OK Macd's might be a bad example I am sure that internet is garbage, but say the open network at your local university with 10k+ kids on campus.. how do you pin that on one person?
