Calls plans to target suspected file-sharers "draconian measures" and warns that ISPs will inevitably target "vulnerable people who use shared Internet connections."
Finally some UK politicians are starting to realize the folly in having ISPs target suspected file-sharers, especially when the evidence comes from the entertainment industry and NOT from independent law enforcement personnel.
With reports that some 54% of UK kids are file-sharers along with the fact that the British govt plans to reduce P2P overall by some 80% is starting to raise eyebrows. For it means that large numbers of people will face sanctions from ISPs or more. Again, all without evidence obtained from unbiased sources.
