What AFACT doesn't seem to want to understand is that copyright is 
enforceable by the rights holder and NO ONE ELSE. If they want to 
take legal action against the copyright breaker, then go for it. No 
one is stopping them from going to the courts and filing charges. But 
it is NOT the "obligation" of an ISP or a phone company or any other 
common carrier to police what their customers do on the network. Correct?

Our truest response to the irrationality of the world is to paint or 
sing or write, for only in such response do we find truth.
