Movie Chief Lauds IP Crime Fighting, Tech Solutions
Motion Picture Association of America chief Dan Glickman spoke on intellectual property theft in the digital age on Thursday. Here's what he said during comments at an Institute for Policy Innovation summit commemorating World IP Day, which is April 26:
"We want a world in which folks who are abusing the system know that they can't abuse the system forever and there is a limit to illegal infringement activity -- whether that’s in the form of notices and, where appropriate at the end of a legitimate process, termination [of the Internet service account]."
He added that his trade group wants to work with broadband network providers on technological and other solutions to curb the piracy problem. "There's no one answer here," Glickman said, noting that Web filtering techniques are part of the fix. "At least discussions are occurring now and that didn’t happen five years ago," he said.
