Most of you were not keen that the Government/ISP should be able to disconnect users who have been found to have engaged in illegal file sharing on more than 2 occasions.

Well - what do you make of this:
"Intellectual Property Rights: Commission comes forward with practical, non-legislative measures to combat counterfeiting and piracy"

Why are some people not entirely pleased?

Did I say that I would send you a link about petitioning Lord M? Here is the link.
