Well, here we go again. Everytime a highly publicised crimimal is found to have been using the net, it gets presented as a cause for the crime, rather than the website's they visit. Even that link is tenuous.

But as for the article's main point, net reform, i'm more persuaded. It would perhaps be better if net traffic could be more easily traced to it's sender/publisher. That can be done now but it's very resource intensive.

Hell, a new system would no doubt bring much higher performance too, there is better technology than the TCP/IP currently used.

So yeah, revamp the net, but lets not do it with criminals being the centre of attention.
