I fail to see how any of this is a problem. Or how it is different to what's already going on.
1) Is already happening. I think he's exaggerating what 'proactively police' means. Youtube already does a lot of work in this area.
2) Is already happening. My friend Kale's internet was cut off (and the ISP made moves towards charging him with copyright infringment) because he was caught downloading a porn film through a P2P program.
3) Is already happening. ISPs already take down material that infringes copyright. As for the rest of the world, they're talking through their arses.
4) Is already happening. It is illegal to break DRM, at least on the level that it breaches terms of service.
Full of shit, all of it.
