[Richard Forno]

There are several dubious claims / statements in this document.  Moreover, it's interesting to see that the *only* page marked "Confidential" is the slide of statistics regarding (alleged) sources of music piracy.  Wonder why.

RIAA Presentation: Copyright Alert System and Voluntary Initiatives to Combat Piracy

July 13, 2012 in Corporate

The following presentation from Victoria Sheckler, Deputy General Counsel of the Recording Industry Association of America, was presented at an International Federation of the Phonographic Industry meeting in Panama in April 2012.  It contains information on an upcoming effort by internet service providers to police their users’ sharing of copyrighted material called the Copyright Alert System.  The presentation also discusses other voluntary measures such as agreements by payment processors to stop doing business with sites that are “repeat offenders” and efforts to encourage domain name registrars to enforce stricter “whois” policies.
