ISPs Must Take Responsibility For Sony Movie Leaks, MP Says
Found on Torrentfreak on Thursday, 04 December 2014
“Unfortunately, the theft of these films – and their subsequent downloads – has been facilitated by web-hosting companies and, ultimately, ISPs who do have to step-up and take some responsibility.”
Weatherley doesn’t provide detail on precisely why web-hosts and ISPs should take responsibility for the work of malicious hackers (possibly state-sponsored) and all subsequent fall out from attacks. The theory is that “something” should be done, but precisely what remains elusive.
Following that logic, the government must take responsibility too when I get a speeding ticket because it provides the roads. Or the weapon industry could take responsibility for every person that gets shots. Or we could start with something really simple: politicians taking responsibility for their actions.
