Summary:
|
With the expansion of connectivity and large availability of Over-the-top (OTTs) solutions for content delivery, the world has been facing cases of multimedia content misappropriation due to the use of tampered or malicious software or counterfeit or malicious receivers, among other possibilities.
This behavior has negative impacts for all the involved stakeholders. It generates less revenue for the content creator and distributors, less taxes to the administrations, larger infrastructure and security impacts to the network operators, wider attack surface to internet services, and higher risks to the consumers that may have their personal data stolen or compromised, all caused by tampered or malicious software or counterfeit or malicious receivers.
Additionally, it is common to have content stolen in one country distributed around the globe and, therefore, international collaboration between all stakeholders is required to mitigate this international digital piracy problem.
Even though industry has taken extensive measures to prevent this to happen, recognizing the ongoing growth of digital piracy, violation of Intellectual Property and its negative impacts, administrations have been trying to address this issue by adapting their regulations and procedures designed to mitigate the misappropriate distribution and use of multimedia content.
Considering this complex scenario, there is no single solution, and a group of actions need to be taken, in a collaborative way, by all the involved stakeholders.
Therefore, this Recommendation aims to present a reference framework with requirements and actions that should be considered when deploying solutions to combat multimedia content misappropriation.
