As under the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations (PECR) and the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act (RIPA) as well as the European ePrivacy Directive, that interception and processing of communications requires either explicit informed consent from all parties or a warrant.
But using DPI to prevent these is too extreme of a step and I believe that we can have measures against piracy by not using DPI. People have equal rights on Internet usage and by using DPI to check packets, it directly violates the users' rights. I believe that if mankind used DPI, it is only a matter of time that we screw it up, be immersed in the power it brings to us and abuse it. The negative effects of DPI greatly outweighs the positive uses of it. :)
The power and capability that DPI holds is really unimaginable, that using it, I believe, is too great of a responsibility. My stand is, yes, I think DPI is an invasion of privacy. Just as stated in the video, DPI uses techniques that analyze the relay of messages in the networking level (I think), and in consequence, violates the end-to-end principle of the Internet. Yes we do know that one of the problems in the software industry is rampant piracy through internet.
