That's one of the problems with all of this. The ISP generally has no clue what content is and is not under copyright, and who is and who isn't an authorized distributor. Doing anything close to that automatically is way to hard. That's why these laws and/or volunteer programs are trying to bypass the courts. Gathering real evidence and following due process are much too difficult, as the RIAA has found out with their horrible track record with lawsuits. Much easier to work out programs where all they have to do is provide an accusation/suspicion and the ISP will cut off service. Nobody really cares if you're actually guilty.
