Gee, you neglected to mention what the penalty is for companies that wrongfully accuse an innocent person…

So a judge will be able to chose between a 300,000 Euro fine, two year jail sentence, or internet ban? Hmm, I wonder which of those three possibilities we’ll see applied most often on the third strike? Considering how much retail business is done online (over 50% in my case) combined with the direct affect a loss of customers would have on the ISP’s, I doubt we’ll see too many internet bans handed down. Two years in jail would cause all kinds of controversy, especially among rights advocates, not to mention an unnecessary drain on a resource already at it’s limits in most countries so I can’t see it handed down as a sentence all too often either. That just leaves a very hefty fine, one which most people can’t afford. It is the most desirable from the courts point of view however, given all of it’s options. Personally I’d rather just take the ban and say goodbye to my ISP and shopping online given the choice as a defendant. It will certainly be very interesting to see the outcome of this bill and whether it works as intended, which is doubtful.
