A new strict antipiracy law was unveiled Friday in France that could mean many closed Internet accounts for those who download music illegally. This plan, drawn up by the Chief Executive of FNAC, one of France's largest music and bookstores, was developed in conjunction with government officials and service providers.
Under this plan, service providers will begin issuing warning to illegal peer-to-peer music network users. If they ignore the warnings, their service could be suspended or deleted altogether.
This is the world's toughest move so far to stop music piracy - and may set a world precedent.
I am not sure this is the right way to address this issue - it seems incredibly harsh! What do you all think?
