Campus File Swappers Beware

c|net: "Automated Copyright Notice System (ACNS) technology promises to make copyright enforcement easier on peer-to-peer networks ... allows them to automatically restrict or cut off Internet access for alleged infringers ... universities could instantly send notices of copyright infringement to students by e-mail and restrict their network access until they have removed the file." UCLA will implement a modified system that allows students to contest charges against them rather than being cut off immediately.
