Re: Profit Model Some ISPs and colleges do charge fees for DMCA compliance. The problem is who they charge said fees to - the customer, not the instigator, where it should be applied.
The other thing, and I've said this before, is that no machine can definitively say that a file named "Dark Knight 1080p.wmv" is actually the movie itself rather than a bunch of junk data, a news broadcast, or something else than what it's named. You can't even match byte-for-byte, because of the different resolutions, metadata, etc. present in a file. Unless they can prove that the file transmitted IS a copyrighted file, they (should) have nothing, period. |
