On many of these the students seem genuinely innocent. (We have not
"touched" any of the boxes to confirm this.)

Is anyone else seeing recent notices from mediasentry.com that are
possibly questionable ?

Hm. I remember seeing one of these this week, but as far as we've
checked to date, it looked reasonable. I.e. Torrent traffic from the
reported, valid IP at the reported time. Haven't yet heard from the
student.

It is interesting, got three more for The Dark Knight just today...
