So people have supposedly been punished for illegally downloading stuff by cutting off their internet.
Theres not been much publicised about it though and I don't know of anyone who it's affected.
anyway, they've decided that this is useless and now instead they (the government) are going to send out letters to offenders, 4 times a year telling them they are bad boys (or girls), and recommending they don't do it.
If you ignore them, nothing will happen, so erm, pointless?
supposedly it's to educate the people that don't realise it's illegal what they are doing in the hope they will stop....
thats like saying speed cameras will still go off if you speed, but you'll get a letter telling you not to do it again and you won't get a fine or points, would anyone slow down, erm no.
very strange decision. Maybe it was just too expensive to deal with it all.
