Marty,

"Bevan, you keep going on about "a list", but what does it contain? File
names? Sizes? MD5 hashes?

How does that take into account things like rips at different bitrates,
images of different compressions and words in different formats?

How many permutations are possible and who is going to classify them
all?"

You probably aren't aware, but there is a list already.  It is a URL/IP
address list and it's run by DCITA.  If they have to run more items in
the database list, then that's what they'll have to do.  The DB will be
run by a government department or agency (such as netalert).

Cheers
