Hollywood studios such as MGM, Paramount, Viacom and others are increasing it pressure που ασκούν στους πάροχους υπηρεσιών Διαδικτύου σε όλο τον κόσμο, και προφανώς, τουλάχιστον μία υπηρεσία παροχής Internet στην Ιταλία έχει υποκύψει κάτω από την πίεση.
The Italian newspaper Republic states that an ISP providing Internet services in northern Italy has received considerable legal pressure from several of its studios Hollywood, for some of its users who download or share material subject to Copyright.
In the legal notices received by the ISP, there are several details of the illegal activity, such as the client's IP address at the time of each infringement, the intellectual property involved in the transaction, and even valid digital signature certificates for the sender's authentication that it is a real representative of Hollywood Studios.
The ISP is so appalled by the amount of legal warnings it has received that has informed its customers that it will disconnect them if they do not stop their illegal behavior.
Emails that leave IPS to their customers report among others:
"We have received numerous reports from copyright holders or their multiple legal services (Viacom, Paramount, Metro Goldwyn Mayer and other distributors) of illegal use of your connection. Please reply us within 48 hours. In case of failure or bad response on your part, we will be forced to terminate our service. "
Hollywood's cinematographic studios are practically trying to implement their own international version of US law, but using legal threats, as there is a lack of local legislation that gives a blame to the ISP along with the user.
Either way, users who move on the illegal side of the internet at most will switch providers, and the ISP will only do damage to his reputation if he continues to make the police officer with Hollywood lawyers.
