So let me get this straight. You feel that new laws and enforcements will help YOU protect YOUR copyright. Better than the current copyright laws.

How?

Right now, there are all the laws in place to protect your copyrighted material. YOU just have to do it YOURSELF. Because they're YOUR copyrights.

Do you somehow believe that the law will change to make the police do something about it instead? Explain to me what new law could be made exactly, and then how it will magically to improve the current law in place.

I mean really, do you think the police are just going to snap their fingers. Get a thousand more officers per city. Those officers are just going to telepathically know what site owns what copyrighted material and will then go scouring through the bowels of the web to find people committing copyright infringement?

I can see it now. David Jones of the LAPD. New copyright infringement specialist. Assigned to bigasstittiesinyourface.com. He works 8 hour days, on the tax payers dime going out and finding any website infringing on bigasstittiesinyourface.com copyrights. Why does he do this you ask? Because the webmaster of bigasstittiesinyourface.com decided it wasn't his own job to protect his own copyrights, it was the government's job. Oh, and never mind copyright infringement isn't a criminal case, it's a civil case. David Jones doesn't mind, He's there for you! He'll also do your laundry and scrub your toilet if you need it.
