[citation][nom]superblahman123[/nom]I can also guarantee that this would be a breach of privacy for ISPs to monitor what you're downloading. Keeping track of bandwidth is one thing, but to mark down what people are downloading is another.Not to mention that if it were possible to track illegal internet activity to the letter, and ISPs were to report illegal activity to the government as to shut down the customer, who is it to say that the ISP wouldn't just "overlook" it so they can keep a paying customer?... This sounds like something the government would have to go out of their way to track, not the ISPs.[/citation]
The problem here is that the ISP's don't care as long as you pay your bills, HOWEVER, all of a sudden they care when they get a letter from the MPAA or RIAA saying they want XXX million dollars, or the names of people pirating on they're connections. This is the problem.
