This situation in the Netherlands does nothing to change my opinion that anti-piracy measures are more harmful to society as a whole than some unauthorized downloaders could ever be. I don't download for free from non-legitimate sites, and I don't condone the activity.
But if someone put a gun to my head and said "piracy or anti-piracy. You must choose a side now." then I would choose piracy - because of shit like this. I don't condone personal privacy and due process being trampled just to catch a few freeloaders.
