nsane.forums Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Only recommends legislation requiring ISPs to notify individuals of copyright infringement, and to comply with court orders requesting personal info of "serious repeat infringers".The Digital Britain Report, a comprehensive plan intended to further the UK's digital economy and society, and prepared by Lord Stephen A.
