Square Enix Legal Action Over Illegal Uploading Square Enix released an PDF today, talking about the regulation of illegal uploading of Advent Children online. With the release of the English version of Advent Children in the UK (24th April) and the US (25th April), S-E will be tightening regulation of infringement of their intellectual properties, such as illegal copying of their games, music, videos, images, and so on. In October of last year, a complete video file of the Japanese version of Advent Children was uploaded onto Google Video. After getting the file removed from the site, S-E continued their investigation and identified the person responsible. The infringer eventually admitted to it, and as well as issuing an apology agreed to pay the compensation, so on 17th April they reached a settlement. » Announcement (PDF, Japanese) » Announcement (English) » Source: FF7AC Reunion » Discuss in the Forums... 20 Apr 2006 : Posted by vilaeth |
