The worst thing about this treaty is that like most attempts to stop piracy, it adopts a guilty-until-proven-innocent philosophy and completely bypasses the judicial system. What ever happened to the right to a fair trial?

The worst thing is that I don't think it even necessarily needs to - this is essentially what the legal trolls already do. They get bad press for going after the end user, so instead they go after their ISP.

User is one thing, ISP is another. That's overstepping the privacy issue.

I would agree, I understand the need to enforce copyright law but that's the key word - LAW. For some reason, the entire legal process has been sidestepped and abused in the digital age. This is not the way our (and many other) justice systems were designed to function. These companies are going on witch hunts and gathering up anyone they can. For some inexplicable reason, most governments seem to be going along with it happily.
