Its strange and I dont know if the law has been changed in the uk( i doubt it as in the uk its still against the law to record tv programes, or rip cds to your mp3 player, thought I doubt anyone would get charged with anymore), but you can sue people who facilitate piracy.  They tried with the amstrad twin vhs recoreders, and also with the mulitface for the 8 bits computers, that let you dump games to disk, and they failed.  the reeason being that a) they could be used for ligitimate reasonss, thought they mainly were not and b) just because something can be used for piracy does not mean it has to.  Its down to the perosn using the device or service.
