My friend recently was emailed by Comcast which said: Notice of Action under the Digital Millenium Copyright Act…..ABuse number: —
Dear comcast highspeed internet subscriber:
Comcast has received a notification by a copyright owner reporting an alleged infringment of one or more copyrighted works made on or over comcasts highspeed internet service. The works copyrighted by the copyright owner are: ………. comcast reminds you that the use of the service in any manner that constitutes an infringement of any copyrighted work is a violation of comcasts acceptable use policy and may result in termination of your service account.
This is only a notice from comcast saying that some copyright owner has contacted comcast…so he hasnt her from the copyright owner yet. What do you think will happen to him? Sued? just a warning?
