I got this earlier yesterday or the day before from Charter via e-mail. Don't use E-Mule, and what do you guys think of this? Also, if a mod sees anything that needs to be deleted to help me be safe from hackers >.< Please edit it, and type blank or something. Thanks guys.
Dear Internet Access Subscriber:
Charter Communications ("Charter") has been notified by a copyright owner that
your Internet account has been involved in the exchange of unauthorized copies
of copyrighted material (music, movies, or software). We are enclosing a copy
of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) notice that Charter received from
the copyright holder.
It is possible that this activity has occurred without your permission or
knowledge by an unauthorized user, a minor who may not fully understand the
copyright laws, or even as a result of a computer virus. However, as a Charter
Internet account owner, you can be held liable for this activity.
As a personal computer owner and a user of the Internet, we ask that you be
aware of the following: Violations of federal Copyright law can result in civil
and/or criminal liability, including payment of monetary damages, costs and
attorneys' fees to the copyright owner. See 17 U.S.C. �� 504-506. In addition,
Charter's Acceptable Use Policy explicitly prohibits copyright infringement by
Charter High-Speed Internet users. Specifically, Section 3 states:
NO COPYRIGHT OR TRADEMARK INFRINGEMENT
Customer will not use, or allow others to use, the Service to send or receive,
or otherwise use any information which infringes the patents, trademarks,
copyrights, trade secrets or proprietary rights of any other person or entity.
This includes, but is not limited to, digitization of music, movies, photographs
or other copyrighted materials or software. Customer must obtain appropriate
authorization from such other person or entity prior to sending, receiving or
using such materials. Customer represents and warrants that Customer is the
author and copyright owner and/or authorized licensee with respect to any hosted
content and Customer further represents and warrants that no hosted content
violates the trademark, copyright, domain name or intellectual property rights
of any third party. Charter assumes no responsibility, and Customer assumes all
risks regarding the determination of whether material is in the public domain,
or may otherwise be used for such purposes.
Charter is registered under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (DMCA).
Under the DMCA, copyright owners have the right to notify Charter if they
believe that a Charter customer has infringed the copyright owner�s work(s). If
Charter receives a notice from a copyright owner alleging any Customer has
committed copyright infringement, Charter will notify the Customer of the
alleged infringement. Charter may determine that Customer is a repeat copyright
infringer if Charter learns that Customer has engaged in online copyright
infringement on more than one occasion. Charter reserves the right to suspend
or terminate the accounts of repeat copyright infringers.
We ask that you take immediate action to remove the infringing material from
your computer and stop its exchange. If Charter continues to receive DMCA
notices regarding your account, or if you violate any other clause of Charter's
Acceptable Use Policy, we will have no choice but to terminate your account.
