Court Orders Altice to Disclose Data of 100 Alleged Music Pirates
2025-02-20
Altice, the parent company of internet provider Optimum, has been ordered by a court to disclose personal details of 100 alleged music pirates. This comes as part of an ongoing copyright infringement lawsuit filed by a group of record labels. The labels allege Altice failed to adequately address repeat infringers on its network. In return, Altice will gain access to anti-piracy information, including a letter the RIAA previously sent to BitTorrent Inc., regarding copyright infringement. The case highlights the legal battles faced by ISPs in combating online piracy.
