So U2 manager Paul McGuinness wants to hold ISPs accountable for policing the content on their networks. He also loves France's plan to auto-disconnect P2P users and thinks more ISPs should be like Comcast and throttle the bandwidth use of Bittorrent-using hippies.

I have to say I felt pretty bad for Paul as I read his speech. I was all like: oh. OH. Paul, dude, you're not really gonna say what I think you -- oh, I guess you are. Wha? No. NO. STOP. Digg is gonna have your head on a pike, you know that, right? Oh geez, that's...that's just -- look, I gotta go.

I haven't looked, but I bet certain threads at Slashdot and Metafilter are burning right now.
