This corrects an annoying trend. "The (notice and notice) system was viewed as a win-win approach since it promised to deter infringement through education rather than legal threats. Yet within hours of taking effect, anti-piracy companies began sending notices that included settlement demands backed by threats of litigation." This action ends that practice. In a pair of related announcements, the government has also rejected statutory damages in copyright cases, and is regulating patent demand letters. I'm supportive of this recent trend.
