I fully agree with you. My main worry is that the isps will see this as a reason to push for access to the data from the equipment they are forced to install. They could say that the money made from access to the data will help fund the cost of supplying the large amount of data that COULD be requested by the lawyers who jump on the bandwagon of sue sue sue.

Its a lot of could's or if's but it makes me worried as to where we will end up with this.

I feel that the Deep packet inspection kit to be installed in half of VM's network will not only be used for p2p checking. It will in my eye's evolve very quickly when they see the benefits of a phorm type off shoot.
