RIAA, ISPs Introducing New "Hunger Games" Penalties for Infringers
RIAA, ISPs Introducing New "Hunger Games" Penalties for Infringers
RIAA chairman Cary Sherman has announced a new agreement between his organization and some of the largest American ISPs that would require subscribers accused of infringement to compete in a televised gladitorial battle to the death. Sherman responded this week to concerns about the severity of the program saying, "Obviously we don't think that all of the infringers selected as tributes should meet their death in the arena. Presumably one of them makes it out alive."
