Research Project - Artefact 6 Evaluation

Artefact six formed a research document that summed up the whole research and came to a conclusion to what the future on online content will be. It shows how content is being adjusted to keep up with the issue of online piracy and presents new strategies that are being used to tackle online piracy.

It argues a case that not enough is being done by big companies and associations to reduce piracy. Issues are raised about these organisations not successfully working together to beat online piracy and how this affects the industry as a whole.

The artefact looks into laws being enforced in countries to reduce online piracy by tracking and prosecuting individuals who frequently share files illegally. It highlights the dispute of anti-piracy technology being introduced to Freeview TV to stop illegal copying of TV shows for distribution on the internet.
It draws attention to the amount of illegal file sharing websites that have been fined or prosecuted and the vast crackdown countries are enforcing in their anti-piracy laws.

This document provides the new ways that are being used to help prevent online piracy and concludes how successful they may be with reference to previous artefacts.
It indicates measures that may be successful in helping, with what is an issue that affects every user of the World Wide Web.
