Internet Providers To Begin Warning Customers Who Pirate Content

[wraggster]

Welcome to the future that you warned us about. Starting soon, Verizon, Comcast and others will work with the Center for Copyright Information to reduce piracy. Customers thought to be pirating will receive alerts (http://www.cnn.com/2012/10/18/tech/web/copyright-alert-system/index.html). 'The progressive series of alerts is designed to make consumers aware of activity that has occurred using their Internet accounts, educate them on how they can prevent such activity from happening again,' If a customer feels they are being wrongly accused, they can ask for a review, which will cost them $35, according to the Verge.
