Graduated Response - Approach

Approach

According to Barry Sookman and Dan Glover, the main characteristics of these initiatives are:

  • "Rights holders monitor P2P networks for illegal downloading activities"
  • "Rights holders provide ISPs with convincing proof of infringements being committed by an individual at a given IP address"
  • "Educational notices are sent through an ISP to the account holder informing him or her of the infringements and of the consequences of continued infringement and informing the user that content can be lawfully acquired online"
  • "If the account holder repeatedly ignores the notices, a tribunal may take deterrent action, with the most severe sanctions reserved for a court"

Famous quotes containing the word approach:

    The modern world needs people with a complex identity who are intellectually autonomous and prepared to cope with uncertainty; who are able to tolerate ambiguity and not be driven by fear into a rigid, single-solution approach to problems, who are rational, foresightful and who look for facts; who can draw inferences and can control their behavior in the light of foreseen consequences, who are altruistic and enjoy doing for others, and who understand social forces and trends.
    Robert Havighurst (20th century)

    I have watched ... many literary fashions shoot up and blossom, and then fade and drop.... Yet with the many that I have seen come and go, I have never yet encountered a mode of thinking that regarded itself as simply a changing fashion, and not as an infallible approach to the right culture.
    Ellen Glasgow (1873–1945)

    I maintain that Truth is a pathless land, and you cannot approach it by any path whatsoever, by any religion, by any sect.
    Jiddu Krishnamurti (1895–1986)
