I wonder. Would the UK extradite someone to Iran for some horrible crime, say, like looking at a non-nude picture of two shirtless guys kissing? (Or girls, if you are into that sort of thing.)

It's frightening, because every weekend I violate Saudi/UAE law by consuming alcohol. I hope I don't get extradited out there!

Out of interest, were they all pertaining to use of P2P programs? Had they seen P2P traffic?
All this talk of shutting down locker sites had me trying to figure out if the reason is that with these sites (just downloading over HTTP port 80) means the ISP cannot do much to see illegal downloads, so the *IAA go after the source instead, whereas with P2P they can see traffic over a different protocol which sets off alarm bells and therefore triggers more scrutiny of traffic.

Familiarity breeds attempt.
