Internet providers can lose millions in anti-piracy
At least until now only furnizoor internet service in the UK could be forced to serve notices of copyright infringement million per year, at a cost of up to £ 15 million, if the provisions of the Digital Economy Bill will become law. This information arising from a consultation document published by the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills on the distribution more cost efficient in the fight against online piracy. Copyright owners lose £ 400 million annually due to online piracy. But government advisers say that if online piracy would be reduced, the benefit of copyright owners would be only £ 200 million a year. Since the copyright owners will be the gain from anti-piracy measures, the British government has proposed that they pay 75% of costs, and Internet providers 25%.
