Hunting piracy goes against data protection

Very interesting note about data protection and hunting for IP addresses of P2P file-sharing users. For a while now it has been felt that the efforts to gather data from P2P users could have adverse privacy implications and may infringe data protection. Now there is an official declaration from the data protection regulatior in Sweden.

Could this open the door for similar declarations in the UK?
