For the past several years, anti-piracy Company Rightscorp has been moderately successful in forcing smaller margin ISPs in the United States to collaborate in a low-tier copyright trolling operation. The way it operates is relatively simple. Rightscorp monitors BitTorrent networks, obtains the IP addresses of alleged infringers, and gives DMCA notices to their ISPs. Rightscorp expects ISPs to forward these to their clients along with an attached cash settlement charge.
