Has anyone been involved in the Copyright Alert System (CAS)?<br><br> From Wednesday's Cynopsis:<br><br>How do you combat internet piracy? You give consumers six strikes --<br>sort of. The Center for Copyright Information, a joint venture of<br>

entertainment copyright holders and internet service providers (ISPs),<br>has launched the Copyright Alert System (CAS). Here's how it works: A<br>content owner/copyright holder will notify a participating ISP if they<br>

believe a consumer has been illegally downloading digital content like a<br>movie or TV show. The ISP will then send a notice to the allegedly<br>guilty party. Consumers get six strikes. Potential actions from an ISP<br>
include temporary reductions in internet speed and redirecting consumers<br>
to a landing page until they contact the ISP and/or complete a copyright<br>education program.<br><br><a href="http://www.cynopsis.com/editions/digital/022713/#Joint%20venture%20launches%20six-strike%20program%20to%20combat%20digital%20piracy" target="_blank" style="color:rgb(17,85,204)">http://www.cynopsis.com/editions/digital/022713/#Joint%20venture%20launches%20six-strike%20program%20to%20combat%20digital%20piracy</a><br>
