UK P2P Fight Brewing

forunder writes "Zeropaid has been covering a very hot topic going on in the UK right now.

A leaked government letter says they are looking to cut internet piracy by 80%. In the same week Microsoft released a study which found that some 54% of UK file sharers are between 11-16. The UK's Green Party has already spoken up, calling the new policies an 'Attack on Civil Liberties.'"
