The British government said hardcore online pirates who illegally swap and download copyrighted films and music could have their Internet connection cut off, in proposals announced Tuesday.
The measure, which would go beyond previous proposals and has strong similarities to a proposed French law, could be brought in soon to tackle illegal downloaders file-sharing en masse.
The government is "considering adding account suspension to the list of technical measures that could be used only as a last resort against the hard core of copyright pirates," said a spokesman for the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills.
