I’m guessing that a lot of it will have to do with the user’s traffic volume and any sudden changes in that, and perhaps relating to sites that you’re connected to, as that will be the easiest things for them to flag. Just as it’s apparently accepted in the UK that a TV “detection” van can pull up in front of your house and you can get a knock at the door from An Official who says that you’re suspected of watching TV without a license and can I please have a look around for an illegal TV? And if not, why not? ....so also it may become the new norm that An Official will drop by your house and request to examine your computer, as a sudden increase in traffic volume has been reported at your address and illegal movie or music downloading is suspected.
And sir, why is it exactly that your download traffic has incread to 10GB this month when it was only 5GB last month?

Sadly, our British Friends don’t have quite as many civil protections as we enjoy in the USA.

Correct Stoat.

I’ve been nodding my head since I found out that you need a license to OWN A TELLY...I mean TV.

Dear God, I just love this country!
