If it were to follow the American model, you’d also have to give a list of all your friends and family who could possibly have accessed your computer or network connection, so they can all be vigorously pursued. I don’t know if an English court would allow that or not. It’s also not clear whether you’d be liable in a case where your security had been compromised. Davenport Lyons’ position has been that you are.

So what's your beef with me?Just what is it you are taking issue with?
A throwaway remark about a game that no one in their right mind would want to play so desperately that they would file share it?
I've no objection to you keeping your privacy.However I do contend that the originator of software,artwork and music does have some right to be PAID for that which they produce.
Not anything posted in a forum though...that's taking the micky to think you have an intellectual right to that which you post in a forum...
