New Spanish Internet Piracy Law in Place – Interesting YouTube Videos, A study
The Spanish government presented on Friday a proposed a new Internet anti-piracy law which will allow judges to shut down websites offering illegal downloads of music, movies and other entertainment.
“A judge’s order will always be needed to take this decision through a quick procedure which is taken within four days at the latest after the judge has heard all sides,” Justice Minister Francisco Caamano told a news conference.
Bloggers and Internet users raised a voice against the earlier version of the proposed Law which empowers the government to block the access or close the websites by a regulator and without a court’s order.
“If the draft law needs to be clarified, it will be. But the government feels that a country which wants to have intellectual property must protect it,” he said.
The new draft law still must be approved by parliament before it it comes into effect.
