Because they find out it was too hard to target individual people so they are now working with ISP to stop illegal downloads (ie : ISP throttling peer2peer file sharing)

Because there are lots of people downloading lots of illegal software and data, a few people downloading a bit more than the rest isn't important enough for companies to go after them.
HAHAHAHA i cant believe someone reported that... and thanks Falkoner. It seems like the government is decently slacking in enforcing those ordeals. We have traffic cameras for the highways and people get flag all the time, they ignore it and never get penalized.
Another thought, how can you honestly tell who is pirating and who is not? There is plenty of honest peer-to-peer sharing, I download Linux distros via torrent all the time, it's a smarter way of using your bandwidth, however, as authorities begin to crack down on "piracy", they also cause problems with honest peer-to-peer transactions.
Honestly, the problem is that no ISPs keep track of enough data to see that you're truly pirating, and of course, they have good reason not to, it's expensive and hard to store that much data.
EDIT: Wow, I just used variations of the word "honest" three times...

Illegal Items: ROMs, .mp3s, hacks, cracks, warez, CDKeys, viruses etc.
* Seeking or providing links to illegal or pirated materials is not allowed at SEN. This would include warez, ROMs, emulators, hacks, cracks, MP3s, piracy, viruses, etc. * Do not ask for CD Keys or copies of StarCraft. While it's unfortunate that you lost your CD, you'll have to go buy another one. With a valid CD-Key, you can download StarCraft from the Blizzard Store. Since patch 1.15.2, you no longer require the CD to play StarCraft. * Do not distribute or provide programs or links to malicious programs. * SEN is not to be used for coordination of illegal activities or committing crimes. This is grounds for an IP ban without notice, question, or hesistation. We will contact your ISP as well as whatever law enforcement authorities are applicable.
I can't answer your question without violating a rule.

I dont get it... So if there is more PtP it is harder to track, or are you saying that legal PtP is something they are having trouble keeping a hold of?
I tried to google "Linux distros" and i didnt get it, lol what is it Falkoner?

Linux distributions, distros for short, such as Ubuntu, Fedora, CentOS, and any other flavor of Linux you can think of.
I'm saying that it's hard to tell the difference between legal and non-legal downloads, however, since so many illegal downloads are done via peer-to-peer, ISPs assume that whenever upload and download speeds go up at the same time that you are downloading illegally, so they throttle your download, regardless of whether you are actually doing illegal activities.
Oh_Man -- No APM in chess. Computer just outthinks the human by seeing more moves ahead and more permutations

Oh_Man -- U reckon? Kasparov waa defeated by computer decades ago

NimoStar -- If its any consolation, the human brain would still mop the floor with this bot if it wasn't limited by the mechanical interface
[05:34 pm]
NimoStar -- Well. The bot didn't come up with any new strategy. It just has superhuman micro. Hard to beat that. I reckon even the simplest dedicated chess engines are unbeatable for humans now.
Oh_Man shouted: NudeRaider did u watch the entire video? it's not one game. it's currently dominating the ladder at number 1 position. do ur research first!
Oops, caught me there, no I haven't. I was imagining how the game went. Sorry for that. Watching it now. brb
NimoStar shouted: They were not "Unprepared" that was their fifth loss in a row against the bot. The other replays are also available
that doesn't mean he was prepared. When humans come around with new strategies it often takes weeks until the pros figure out how to shut it down. Oh_Man
