It feels dirty to agree with an ISP on something. But even the worst corporations are on the right side of something from time to time I suppose.

Only happens as a matter by court order and is a limit on the person not on the corporations. Though if found out after by the court it can be ordered terminated. And you will face further punishment. But this is levied against the person. As in "You are not allowed to do a thing and if we find out you did the thing you will face further punishments." Corporations should not have the responsibility or ability to determine any ones eligibility. They are a businesses not a government.They are responsible for their own tos and should never be anything more.

government.They are responsible for their own tos

Piracy almost certainly violates their TOS
