Unfortunately the behavioural habits of "pirates" and their freetard mentality have necessitated this legislation.
Anyone following the progress of this bill with any degree of interest beyond that which is normally espoused by the pro "piracy" lobbyists would know / see that the popular assertion that it is simply a mechanism whereby all and sundry (including innocent parties) would be deemed guilty without proof or adequate due process is very far from the truth.

The behaviour of the Pirates does not excuse this bill going through on the nod without proper scrutiny. Smaller companies will not have the time or resources to make proper use of this. Whilst the big boys will just use it as an excuse to continue to charge exorbitant prices - the real reason piracy thrives.
