"Citing for using the GPS is stupid" ... Why is it stupid? Three motorcyclists are dead within 5 miles of my house in past 2 months. Mini-couper driver just "wandered" across center line into the other lane. In the other case the driver just pulled out in front of motorcyle - "Didn't see them". Texting is just the straw that broke the camels back. Car manufacturers are putting more and more distractions into every new model to the point where driving the vehicle is just a secondary concern at best. In my old Toyota Tacoma i can change the radio without looking down. In my newer Prius I tend to look at the LED screen when I change stations. Progress? Back to GPS - Only allow GPS that give audio directions. Ban all GPS that require you to look at the GPS map while the engine is running. Same rule should apply to built in GPS. Pull over when you need to study the map. Ban or lock out all LED screens in the drivers view that are not directly related to driving (i.e. speed, tach, warning lights) while the car is running. For example in the Prius does the driver really need to know "fuel consumption" at any given moment? Ask yourself how many seconds in the past month you've looked at that screen while driving. 65mph about 100 ft/sec. How far have you driven while not looking at the road? Add technology to vehicles and phones that enforces the above restrictions and restrictions on texting etc. People will always think they know better and the statistics don't apply to them. Let them that to the families of all the victims. It will take alot more deaths before we realize that all the technology that we put in front of the driver is taking their eyes and mind off of job 1: driving.

Even if you allow (which i don't) that the ip address corresponds to 1 machine and 1 user it means nothing. How do you know that the machine isn't acting as a proxy for someone else who is downloading? Point 12 ignores the fact that there is software between the ip address and the keyboard/display. It wouldn't be that hard ( especially in a college environment) to use someone elses machine without their knowledge or consent, as a proxy for downloading. It might be worth thinking about the "other end of the spectrum" which is electronic signatures. There are places today where people and organizations agree that electronic signatures are valid. The only way electronic signatures are valid is when you have a closed loop between the thing being signed, the software signing it, and the user at the keyboard/display.
