I've been reading a large number of articles about P2P and various governments and I must say that Germany is the first EU country to tell the major industries to go screw themselves.
Most other countries have been handing over whatever the music and record industries want and in many cases even allowing them to be a part of police raids. In most countries, this is normally illegal, but some how they manage to get in on the action. It's also illegal in most countries for police and the gov to actively help in civil matters such as this.
Think about it. If you wanted to sue your neighbors for not returning your BBQ {outdoor cooking grill}, you will never get the police to raid their house and let you join in. Nor will the police/gov wiretap their phones and internet for you to help you with your civil case.
