Govt rules out legislation forcing ISPs to disconnect repeat copyright infringers.

David Lammy, the UK's Intellectual Property Minister, has said in a recent interview with The Times online that the Government has decided against legislation requiring ISPs to terminate the Internet connections of those repeatedly accused of illegal file-sharing.

In short, no "3-strikes-and-your-out" policy for UK file-sharers.

Lammy noted that enforcement of disconnections would be very problematic since it involved so many complex legal issues. Definitive identification of actually copyright infringement also surely played a part in its decision.
