AT&T's new Anti-piracy patent would be the end of the internet

According to TorrentFreak, AT&T has patented a new anti-piracy mechanism that targets unauthorized transfers or uploads of files to websites that are deemed copyright infringement even if the user does not file-share.

The new anti-piracy patent targets, including not limited to, movies, music, text, and images, that are uploaded to websites including Deviantart, Pixiv, Photobucket, etc. You upload a fan art and/or fan fiction, the file is identified and blocked and your account would be terminated and the infringing data is sent to your local law enforcements. The other option is tracking the infringer and taking actions after several offenses (AKA "Six Strikes")

As a matter of fact, this new anti-piracy patent will be abused and target anyone's computer even if they did not upload any infringing material. Uploading a family photo to Facebook would be blocked.

This doesn't just target those who are AT&T customers but ISPs here in America and around the world will get into AT&T's new patent.

It's the end of the internet once this patent comes into force.

AT&T had another patent that targets file-sharing users, which is the beginning. But I don't file-share.

This patent can also be used by law enforcements to go after those who download child pornography, and also be used by the Obama Government to go after people who visit patriot websites.
