Frances Nixes '3 Strikes' Law for Copyright Infringers

2013-07-11 00:29:00| TechNewsWorld

France has abandoned a law that called for copyright infringers' Internet connections to be cut off upon a third offense. The law stipulated that letters be sent the first and second time people illicitly downloaded copyrighted material; the third time around, an offender's Web would be disconnected. The change of heart reflects a shift in focus, according to a French spokesperson.
