If they can show that you were serving up a video, and it was the
right size, and the name of the file was the name of their movie, and
it was found on a p2p network where the *previous* 118 files of the
same name, type, and size were pirated movies, you'd better be ready
to show proof it *wasnt* a pirated copy of their movie.

If the content companies are trying to combat piracy by flooding p2p
networks with dummy files that *look like* copyrighted content but
aren't, then how can they possibly go after people for having files that
*look like* copyrighted content?
