AT&T and RIAA Try out the New Antipiracy

Posted by on Wed, Mar 25, 2009 at 11:10 AM

CNET reports that good ol' friendly AT&T is "working with the recording industry to combat illegal file sharing." To boot:
At a digital music conference in Nashville, Jim Cicconi, a senior executive for AT&T told the audience that the ISP has begun issuing takedown notices to people accused of pirating music by the Recording Industry Association of America, according to one music industry insider who was present.
So there you go, all ye pirates of the Internets. If you should receive a letter containing some "strong language," don't say you weren't warned. Update: Comcast is in, too. (Billboard.)
