UK To Force ISPs To Cut Off Customers Who Illegally Fileshare

Duncan Robertson writes on The Daily Mail:

People who illegally download films and music will be cut off from the internet under Government plans to tackle online piracy.

Internet service providers (ISPs) such BT or Virgin Media will be legally required to take action against users who access illegal material.

Under draft proposals to be unveiled next week, users suspected of wrongfully downloading films or music will be first sent a warning email to stop.

For a second infringement they will receive a suspension and termination of their contract if caught a third time.
