As if an ISP filtering what content gets to you wasn't enough, Cary Sherman of the infamous RIAA says that the only way to really defeat piracy is via a client-side monitoring service, much like an anti-virus client, except more like spyware. He says that the current problem that ISPs are facing with server-side filtering is encrypted content, which can be read only by the server it comes from, and the client receiving it. So, his solution is to wait until the content is decrypted, after it reaches the client.

He also thinks that ISPs could start including the filter on the modems they ship to their customers.

Sounds good to me, install a client to your computer, if you download something you shouldn't it sends your IP, name, address and shoe size back to RIAA. :twisted:
