read the c-61 or the article i posted that exactly the right they would take away.
the problem is that 1/2 the torrent transaction (seeding) is /should be the protected act of backup. You can create x-1 complete points of redundancy BEFORE a single infringing copy could potentially be created.
With tv shows representing 49% of all torrent traffic, and movies which air on tv being another 7-11% a majority of the downloads are the basically using the swarm like A VCR.
The penalty for making a bogus /fair use infringing takedown request is not serious enough. IT should be 3 times the damages claimed.
