Shoplifting is a prime example. If you walk out of a store without paying , they will ask you to either pay for what you took or call the cops and have you arrested. No court case , no proof.. this is basically the same thing..
There is a massive difference between actually SEEING someone steal something

and knowing who had access to a location downloaded something.

I love how you use an example where you actually have valid proof as a justification for an accusation where you are no where close

if they got a court order , analysed the guys computers, found the file on the computer

then it would be equal to the example you gave.

That the point there are no where close when they start trial.
