This will certainly curtail a lot of casual piracy but the harder core community will simply use a VPN to circumvent the ban or move to more "private" sharing sites.

There are many, many more sharing sites available even for casual file sharers. Boy and leaking dike stuff.

In reality, with all the loud bleatings and cries of impending doom of the music, entertainment and publishers front pieces, their annual profit continues to rise.

I am of the belief that all this "woe is us" whining is simply all rearguard actions to avoid actually making meaningful reforms so as to be relevant in today's digital economies.
