Film producer: Let’s block access to streaming video sites

German movie producer Max Wiedemann has a plan to combat online piracy: He wants ISPs to block access to streaming video sites that offer unlicensed full-length feature films. Wiedemann proposed this type of ISP-based access control during an event organized by the German anti-piracy organization GVU, according to IT news site heise.de . Wiedemann told is audience that it would be “technically trivial” to implement such blocks and singled out German-language streaming media directory Kino.to as an example for a site that should be blocked.
