Should ISPs be responsible for cutting internet service to suspected pirates?

Section 92A of the Copyright (New Technologies) Amendment Act, passed last year, takes effect on February 28 and will see copyright infringers (that is anyone downloading music, movies, books, computer software and anything else copyrighted that they haven't legitimately purchased) punished under a three strike system.
The first two strikes will see ISPs warning infringers they're breaking the law, and should they continue, the third strike will see them disconnected from the internet by their ISP.
