One from the sims collection but I received another notice from mark monitor (of course 🙄) saying I again illegally downloaded something.
Depending on the ISP it could be permanent. Once you get a certain amount of copyright strikes they terminate your service immediately. He did, got a letter in the mail after the check was cashed and everything was clear.Īlso, many isps have a strike system. MarkMonitor got legal approval and forwarded that info from his ISP to a lawyer (or attorney I don't remember) but instead of pressing charges they simply forced him to send $60 USD via check somewhere and it would be dropped. Specifically, I got an email from Comcast saying they got a notice from Mark Monitor on behalf of electronic arts stating infringement of their rights and that I downloaded the Mac version of the game and what not.
If a DMCA enforcer such as the one I mentioned previously detects your IP address they run a scan and find who the IP belongs to (Comcast, charter, att, etc) then they send then a notice saying 'this IP address illegally downloaded our software X, this is not okay blah blah blah' then your ISP matches their claim against your IP address and contacts you in whichever method you selected as your approved form of contact.
