The coffee thing was because normal house coffee is like 1/4th the temp of McDonald's coffee, so people who spill the coffee think it's the coffee they blend at home, not knowing that it's stupidly hot.
I buy a storage locker in California, pay my fees and just use it to store extra stuff I can't fit into my house (like boxes, electronics, seasonal clothing, whatever), but someone else uses the one right next to mine to store drugs.
What you're suggesting is that because one person uses a storage locker to store illegal goods, every storage locker should be opened up by the police and all the contents confiscated, even though what I had was nothing illegal, but I would like to keep my stuff.

1: The fact that so many people ignore copyright means that copyright is against natural rights. Copyright is SUPPOSED to be for a limited amount of time. The fact that it's now forever (don't give me any sort of "it's still limited" BS, if it's under copyright for longer than i'll be alive, it's forever) means that the contract, the spirit of copyright is broken, thus people ignore it.
2: Guess what? Culture works by SPREADING the content of history around. If you censor or lock it up, then culture dies off.
If you cannot see that, you have no business commenting.

What about the next Netflix or Hulu?
Why would they start up if they'll just be held liable for their customer's actions?
It's like shutting down all the Walmarts across the country because someone raped a woman in the parking lot.
