Probably not for your sites, but for popular ones it would be obscenely massive. Twitter, Facebook, tumblr, linked in, any forum, any email, etc etc.

Now THAT'S the burden,
Don't bother doing it then. It's a waste of time and achieves nothing. At least I've never seen a SHRED of evidence that wasting that time increases sales.

And for the record, I am not in favour of piracy, but I am against stupidity. There is a difference.

Anyway, this will never get passed, so meh. Carry on posting how you think it's gonna end piracy if it makes you feel better about the time you are wasting trying to win an unwinnable fight.
