Has this strategy been tested in court yet? With the current draconian measures of the entertainment industry via RIAA and other copyright cops, are we worried as to when they will be targetting outside of ISPs and internet music thieves? Is it your University ISP policy to accomodate any legal action pertaining to privacy and copyright rather than institute a best practices/preemptive copyright policy? Just interested in getting policy ideas in these changing times.
