Content Coalition Urges Passage of US Bill Targeting “Rogue Sites”

CASBAA and other members of the Coalition Against Online Video Piracy wrote to leaders of the US Senate Judiciary Committee urging passage of the “Protect IP” Act of 2011”.  That bill would aim to penalize international piracy websites by forcing their removal from US domain name servers, advertising servers and search engines.   It has garnered a wide range of bipartisan support from legislators concerned about sites pushing everything from pirate movies to fake designer shoes.
