Internet users in France who download music and films without paying for them could find their web access shut down by a government body, under a ground-breaking industry agreement backed by President Nicolas Sarkozy.

The proposed enforcement body would use information collected by internet service providers on their highÂvolume users to detect illegal file-sharing. Persistent offenders would be cautioned but could see their internet accounts suspended or terminated if they ignored as few as two warnings.

Stealing is stealing. I was taught that all sins are equal, that's why I stick the worthwhile ones
