There are many solutions to this problem. P2P is easy to eliminate. Fracture the internet by country or by legal jurisdiction (EU would be 1 internet, USA would be another (I dont think its friendly with Canada at the moment), some islamic middle east countries may join together). Then once the internet is under many jurisdictions, 1 country has legal power over all content on the internet, and there is no worry about websites in other countries following other rules. Also it can be made to get a license to "host" a website, or to get open ports.

So you're basically suggesting the only way to get rid of P2P is to scrap the whole internet and turn it into a regulated and licensed medium?

True, but that's never going to happen, so P2P is never going to disappear.

Yep.

It can happen. Very easy to order all links to outside world cut, otherwise the CEO of the national telco gets the axe (literally). Burma did it.
