tarak73 Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 An Indian court has decided to clarify a previous order that saw entire Web sites taken down for fear of a single movie being pirated. India's Medianama is reporting today that the Madras High Court recently limited a badly drafted April ruling on the subject. The court said in its updated ruling, according to Medianama, which obtained a copy of it, that "the interim injunction is granted only in respect of a particular URL where the infringing movie is kept and not in respect of the entire website. Further, the applicant is directed to inform about the particulars of URL where the interim movie is kept within 48 hours." India was shaken last month after the High Court's initial ruling paved the way for copyright holders to request entire Web sites be taken down in order to protect a movie called "Dhammu" from piracy. According to Medianama, the so-called "John Doe" order allowed copyright holders to request a site be taken down preemptively just so users wouldn't have the chance to deliver a pirated copy to the Web.
