Verizon is terminating internet service to an unknown number of repeat
copyright scofflaws, a year after suggesting it was not adopting a so-called
graduated-response policy.
While it was not immediately clear whether other internet service providers
were following suit, the move comes as the Recording Industry Association of
America and the Motion Picture Association of America are lobbying ISPs and
Congress to support terminating internet access for repeat, online copyright
offenders.
