Legal Issue On Internet


I have something to share with you guys this week. From the following website, http://ecommerze.blogspot.com/search/label/Legal , I found that something is important to let you all know about it.

I know that most of our internet users in Malaysia are using the internet service to download digital products. Some of them login to some website to download the latest the music and movies, but do all of you know that it is an illegal action and unethical to do so? However, many of the users did not realize about it and even care about it.

In UK, a new law has been implemented to those internet users, who are illegally download some of the digital products like copy right music and movies. How is the law being implementing? The government will cut off the internet connection of the illegal downloader.
Besides that, Among the contents of the new proposed law are ISP who failed to enforce the rules could be prosecuted and details of customers suspected in illegal downloading can be made available to the courts.

In Malaysia, I heard that the Malaysia governments also enforce the rule to protect those copy right digital product. However, it is not efficienct and effectiven enough. According to a research, more than 70% of the internet users in Malaysia are using the internet to download video or music. Thus, I think that Malaysia government should be more concern about it.
