I'm not sure if it's law yet, but the government wanted us to have the right to 2MB/s internet. Which is still a significant knock down that can be pretty effective at stopping us. It's good to limit what stupid things the ISP can do, I'd rather the government say it's not a grey area, it's legit. Bt and Talktalk wouldn't do this anyway, they don't mind illegal p2p.
