The consortium of US film producers that have been busy suing a plethora of internet companies of late have now filed lawsuits against both AT&T and Verizon, claiming that the two American internet service providers do not do enough to stop copyright infringement on their networks.
Although it was music companies that really got things going in terms to targeting ISPs over their copyright infringing customers, with BMG and then the majors successfully going after Cox Communications, this consortium of independent film-makers has been particularly prolific when it comes to filing lawsuits of this kind, against various ISPs and other internet firms.
