I'm not so sure. Generally speaking, a destination network is a given ISP, not a given individual. And it's highly impractical for an ISP to know the /individual/ a packet is destined for from the address.
--The material must be transmitted with no modification to its content.Same theory here also, where one decrements ttl, since we are talking about ip packets here.
I believe they're referring to copyrighted material which is wholly contained in the payload of the packets involved.
Either way, this is an interesting test case and I do hope it receives immediate dismissal. This would be like asking the phone company to turn off phone service for people that arrange drug deals or similar. Not something that I see happening.
I have to say I expect this one to be disposed of pretty quickly, but we'll see... --msa
