It kinda makes a mockery of all this.
Perhaps then the emphasis (on VM as ADSL doesn't have this problem) should be for the ISP to first confirm that the person they're sending out the letters too are the account holders of the account used for file sharing. For gawd sake if they worked out how to do that they'd not only get the BPI off thier backs but also the cloners off thier networks... Perhaps a centralised DHCP bank is in order???

I know that the original letters did say about disconnection, these were altered after the initial news reports to be a general educational/guide as to someone on your account may be file sharing and were not a definative accusation like the original.
