who cares if there are people who have a legal right to enjoy that legal porn, fuck em
you want to be part of the internet you have to religious right complient.
your solution is just as absurd BTW because you are completely ignoring the fact that many people using those sites have a legal right to get that content from that source (fair use/legalized by piracy tax etc)
shutting down all the sites by domain or ip is just as valid as shutting down the entire industry to stop kiddie porn.

you are admittedly the king of bad analogies - but even you should have seen thru this one.
pizza store sells cocaine out the back door - do the cops shut down the pizza industry - or the food industry? no, of course not - but that pizza store gets shut down.
a government official is caught in a huge kickback scheme involving government contracts - do the cops shut down all the worlds governments? no, of course not - but the asshole gets his taste of justice.
bikers/mafia/mob/gangs.... are involved in 'legitimate' businesses - do the cops shut down worldwide commerce? no, of course not - but they surely actively pursue the 'bad elements'.
I could go on with a lot more examples but even you can't be dense enough not to realize you are wrong in this analogy.
the internet is no different - the porn industry is no different and the torrent/sharing sites are no different. If a site is guilty of infringement - then pull the plug on them. If a hosting company knowingly allows it on their system - pull their plug. If an ISP recruits this type of activity - pull their plug. The rest of us will be just as happy without those 'elements' and the internet will carry on. And if you can pin it on the end user - then by all means - cops knockin on the door is appropriate.
SOMEONE has to be responsible and/or culpable
our governments and law enforcement hate a 'perfect crime' unless they are the ones profiting from or controlling it.
the reaper will come...
