You have a lot more to sweat about since the MAFIAA is breathing down your neck.Here in Europe we use their "legal threats" as toilette paper or invite them to "sodomize themselves with a retractable baton".(<a class="user" href="http://static.thepiratebay.org/apple_response.txt)">http://static.thepiratebay.org/apple_response.txt)</a>

"This proposal is totally and completely unworkable in the real world. ISPs will not accept liability for the contents of packets (nor should they), and it would be impossible for them to open and check if every single download and upload was legal or not without the entire Internet grinding to halt. This isn’t in the best interests of the government, the ISPs or the voters. Banning customers and exposing yourself to billions in liability isn’t a good business strategy. Criminalizing six million citizens and inconveniencing the rest is not a vote winner." ... flawless!
