I'm sure they've double and triple checked this with their legal departments, but this strikes me as being ripe for a lawsuit. If the MPAA (or Israeli equivalent) can prove that the ISP is caching copies of illegal torrents it doesn't seem like there's much to defend in court.

You forget that big business ISP's are in bed with big business MPAA/RIAA-like groups. The only reason ISP's ever side with the consumer is that is who pays their bills and makes them a tidy profit. The day they can figure out how to make both sides happy (and line their pockets with the cash from each) they'll do it in an instant.

I was under the impression that Israel had really weak copyright protection. I thought that basically file sharing was allowed, or at least not prosecuted, unless it was commercial.
