The ISP's are not happy with the Cartels lies and cheap-shot propaganda aimed squarley at the politicians ears, time once more for a wake up call ?
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/16705939/Internet service providers struck out at the record industry on Friday, following claims that the online companies were failing to prevent music piracy.
John Kennedy, chairman and chief executive of the IFPI, which represents record groups worldwide, earlier this week said that the organisation could sue ISPs if they continued to allow music pirates to use their networks and accused them of "filibustering".
"(Filibustering) is far from the truth," said Michael Bartholomew, director general of the European Telecommunications Network Operators' Association. He added: "Taking legal action against us would be very inappropriate".
He said that ISPs could only move to cut users off based on a court order, and that the data protection legislation prevented the online companies from trying to prevent copyright infringement.
Tiscali, an internet service provider said that the music industry needed to take more time to develop with ISPs an approach that was practical and legally sound.
It said: "Dealing with cases is time-consuming for ISPs, so we need a reasonable level of proof before taking action.
It seems like the Cartel lives in a fantasy world where they own all content provider rights and the law does as they tell it to *scratchzzzzzzzzzzzzz*
Wake up dipsticks !! if you so much as think of suing any ISP I,ll guarantee you will be hit with the biggest bunch of legal data protection writs in hstory, no one likes some a**hole reading over their shoulders, my advice to you folks is to stop scrounging cash from artists and consumers and get a real job.
