Mass piracy lawsuits: ISPs go completely silent
news Australia’s top five largest ISPs have refused to comment on how they will handle approaches from a new company which is planning to target thousands of their customers with threatened legal action pertaining to alleged online copyright infringements through file sharing platforms like BitTorrent over the past twelve months.
Over the weekend, it was revealed that the company — named Movie Rights Group — had approached every major Australian ISP seeking information on users who had allegedly infringed copyright online, initially seeking the details of some 9,000 Australians who it claimed had downloaded the film Kill the Irishman. There are plans to broaden the company’s efforts to other films.
The company’s existence was revealed following a blog post by John Linton, the chief executive of smaller ISP Exetel. Movie Rights Group is seeking customer data regarding some 150 Exetel customers. However, over the past four days, none of Linton’s colleagues at Australia’s other major ISPs have commented on the matter. Delimiter had approached the ISPs inviting comment on whether they had received a communication from Movie Rights Group and how they were planning to respond.
