I was going to post something about the copyright/IP issue, but what's the point?

Regarding the "anti-piracy" legislation referenced in the OP, is there currently no legal way to request this information in the UK? If you wanted to sue the person who allegedly posted the content, wouldn't you be able to get a court order for the ISP to reveal the identity of that person currently, by showing probable cause, just as you would to get a warrant to have their property searched?

The "three strikes" rule seems as prone to abuse as the DMCA, IMHO. I've seen that abused to take down web sites someone just didn't like, without providing any real evidence to support the claim.
