Another company that has a solution to beat piracy on the web. This time they think the solution has to be found in TECHNOLOGY, wow what a discovery !
How? MediaDefender claims the answer lies in "spoofing," a method in which a peer-to-peer entertainment network is flooded with fake files of a certain title. If an end user tries to download that title, he receives a "spoof" that has the same title as the requested song or video, but actually contains a message warning the user that he has attempted to break copyright law. |
These guys are planning to offer files to download, and these files are not what they look like. This is called spoofing. It sounds like a solution, but damn, how lame !
