French Senate Passes Anti-Piracy Internet Cut-Off Law

An anonymous reader writes "The French Senate has approved a three strikes law for Internet users who download copyrighted entertainment media without paying for it. If, after two warnings, a person continues to download pirated music and movies, the internet service providers would cut off access for a year. Quoting: 'The legislation passed with a massive cross-party majority of 297 votes to 15. Only a handful of conservatives, centrists and socialists voted against, while the Communists abstained. In passing the bill, the senators rejected an amendment proposed by senator Bruno Retailleau of the right-wing MPF party replacing internet cut-off with a fine. ... The bill sets up a tussle between France and Brussels. In September, the European Parliament approved by a large majority an amendment outlawing internet cut-off.

Congress gets ready for the Obama era

Cabinet appointments and plum White House staff picks grab headlines during a transition. But the fate of the Obama presidency will be shaped just as much — if not more — by the messy behind-the-scenes process already under way in Washington: the reorganization of power on Capitol Hill. Three key elements to that process are still being sorted out: the final party-line composition of the Senate; the new GOP leadership in the House and how it reflects the new Republican mission and message; and the ability of House and Senate Democratic leaders to control crusading members who read Obama's win as a green light for a revolution. (Read "Who Will Be Obama's Pick for Treasury Secretary?")

French Senate Passes 'Three Strikes' Piracy Law - On second strike, users would lose access for a year...

The entertainment industry has been placing immense pressure on global governments to enact "three strike" rules requiring that ISPs filter pirated content from their networks, and boot third time offenders. This of course raises all manner of questions, from the unreliability of ISP piracy detection and DMCA letter notification systems, to who -- assuming Santa isn't real -- keeps the master naughty list offenders who float between ISPs. None of this appears to worry the French, who this week signed off on a new three strikes law. In this case, the second strike isn't too gentle: offenders would lose Internet access for a full year.
