Ironic, coming from an australian.

However, it would be nice to see the pro-civil types come up with actual legislation here in the US.

Lets see, how would that work - as we all know, the internet is planetary - you'd have to create a giant international court system with massive unprecedented powers to arrest and punish violators anywhere on the planet where a server can be installed. Planetary IP police.

So we amuricans, or them chinese, can send internet cops to australia and bust some kid p2ping copies of Avatar or topbucks movies.

Oh, you meant only if the theiving server was in your own civil jurisdiction...

Sure, a civil solution sounds great. How would your civil solution work?
