Bad poll options, I want to say no but I don't want to say going after end users is ineffective when the [good] result is spread throughout the media. I guess you could say I am for holding the end users responsible, but only if they are made an example of, but not made an example of by huge unrealistic fines. Man, it's a really fine line.
+1 for the Paul Markham option.

Shopping piracy is not a task industry can achieve, profiting from pirates IMO is fine. They profit from us, industry profits from them.
The suing potential customers is bullshit. Most of these guys will never buy while they can steal.

So you're saying going after the parent of a child who downloaded a bunch of illegal shit is OK?
You're also saying that no one visiting tubes are potential customers (you don't know whether they are or not), which contradicts everything you have ever said.
Shut the fuck up Paul Markham.
