Cullen International’s Americas Media Benchmarks have been updated. The latest edition of the Fighting Online Piracy benchmark shows that Brazil’s audiovisual sector regulator Ancine and its telecoms regulator Anatel have agreed in writing to collaborate in the fight against the online piracy of media content.
According to their agreement, Ancine will identify websites and applications with infringing content and report them to Anatel. Anatel in turn will forward the reports to internet service providers, which will then be required to block access to the infringing services.
Cullen International’s Americas Media Benchmarks monitor relevant regulatory developments in Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Peru, and the US.
