Again, with all due respect, it is not what he is
currently proposing.
The TalkTalk site which you link actually links to the pre September 29th deadline consultation announcement in pdf format and, commenting on the
at that time proposals, moots a hypothetical "It proposes an automatic process to disconnect ‘offenders’
which appears to run something like this:"
Post consultation he has removed the judicial requirement and introduced a levy per notification issued which will be payable by the rights holders to the ISP - ergo one might reasonably assume that the rights holders have no requirement to identify infringers but that this will fall to the ISPs. Hence TalkTalk threatening to throw their toys out of the pram.
