UK High Court orders ISPs to block trademark-infringing sites
A landmark ruling has been handed down in the UK that establishes the right of trademark owners to secure court orders blocking websites that sell counterfeit products.
The case against several Internet service Providers (ISPs) – including BT, BskyB, EE, Talk Talk and Virgin Media – was filed last month by Richemont, which owns several of the world’s leading luxury goods firms including Cartier, IWC and Montblanc.
