Good. Let the ISP's handle it. They could eventually accuse innocent people and start dealing with lawsuits.

The government puts pressure on the ISPs, at least here in Britain that's what happens.

One thing that particularly worries me is the way that this (and previous) governments have tried to redefine 'activity tenuously linked with criminality' with 'actual crimes' - leading to all sorts of suspicious laws around online activity (like that aide of Boris Johnson's who got arrested for writing BDSM fiction, on the basis that it was 'extreme' and 'might inspire violence')
