Thank you for your effort, bro Stud. Who was the writer? In my opinion, the main problem in the post is a confusion of scanning by movie studios/copyright owners in the past and police action in the present. Or to put simply, before and after the copyright laws come into effect.

Its not true anymore I think that the only people likely to scan our ports are the copyright owners. if the law makes downloading copyright material a criminal offence, then the police and thru them the ISPs will do something on their own initiative. Like AV clamping down on pros who solicit or police on those selling pirated/porn VCDs in public. It just seems logical to me.

Also Im no techie but my firewall keeps track of who is scanning or probing my ports. Does the firewall block these attempts? Dunno leh. Anyone knows?
