That's not what the law says though. It only says that if I'm renting to you and I find out that you're cooking meth I should evict you; not that I should refuse to rent to you because I heard you've cooked meth. I'm responsible for meth being cooked on property I own, whether it's me cooking or not. In the same way, if I find out you're doing something illegal (file sharing for example), I should stop you.
I'm just not getting how this is all that different from something like Eclipse, which compiles code while you're writing it, displays error messages in real time, and allows you to gain a sense of what the code is doing (which method is called) by mousing over methods. Is this a way to make life that much easier or is it the same basic idea?
