You got the general idea, but you are missing the finer points.
This rulings give ANYONE access to ANY ISPs Customer private information just by saying his copyright is being infringed.
Not need to present your case to a judge.
...which mean it might not be your content, it might not even be copyrighted, but YOUR ISP will give YOUR personal information to just about ANYONE
...and you guys are standing here applauding it...
wtf?

If you'll read my post above I don't adress the ISP issue at all.
So I'll address it now.
I don't believe that my banking info should be given up by my bank without a warrant and I don't believe my ISP should give up my private information without a warrant either.
The problem is that judges hand out warrants like candy nowadays with little or no evidence!!!!
A warrant should have merrit and evidence in support of the action to be taken.
You never hear about a judge loosing his job or having a pay damages to someone for signing a bogus warrant, do you? There should be accountability.
They served a one of these worthless warrants on Verison and Verison is appealing it as most other ISPs were affraid to do.
