- Summary: The government is talking to ISPs about blocking access to websites deemed to help people infringe copyright. Government, ISPs and content holders, has set up a working group to see how such a pro-active blocking system would work. A spokesman for the government's Department for Culture Media and Sport said it was appropriate that only ISPs, rights holders and web intermediaries such as Google and Yahoo were party to the initial discussions.
