Do what is right. Blockster ISP.
Our program is a proactive tool for supporting copyright law.
The number of copyright infringement letters sent to global service providers has increased 521% since the year 2002. More and more, ISPs are at risk of being involved in expensive copyright litigation.
A simple yet sophisticated solution to the problem of inappropriate computer use in the home and workplace.
As the demand grows for government and industry solutions to copyright infringement and Internet crime, ISPs become more focused on offering subscribers customizable methods to managing computer use. Blockster ISP allows customers to define their access to P2P programs, with one option being the immediate end to the illegal downloading of copyrighted material.
A easy-to-use program that expands parental control options and exceeds the level of service offered by the competition.
Leading ISPs are focused on providing customers the tools they need to manage computer use in the home, including lessons in what to look out for, how to protect children from inappropriate computer use, and how to comply with the law. Many parents are unaware that P2P programs even exist. They are unaware that their children use these programs fluently-- and illegally. Blockster helps ISPs keep parents informed, while giving customers the option of guaranteeing home compliance with copyright and safety issues.
A custom fit for customers.
Many P2P programs are not used for illegal downloads. With the proper authorization, any P2P or chat program will operate with Blockster ISP installed. Parents decide what the password will be, and which members of the family can use it without restriction.
At present, about 10 million people use P2P programs simultaneously. If just 10% of those people turned to downloading movies rather than music, most ISPs would grind to a halt.
By creating an option for households to prevent inappropriate use of P2P transfers, ISPs free up broadband pipes, supporting the promise of a speedy, stable network.
