Re: NTL promoting copyright infringement
OK people, we have a final resolution from the ASA over this issue. I have received the following email from them:
Quote:
Dear ,
Since my letter of 2 October, we have received written assurances from ntl
that
(i) the statement "Spiderman was available on the net ..." should have
appeared as "the Spiderman trailer was available on the net ..."
and
(ii) if quoting the number of downloaded movies in future advertisements,
the figure quoted will be verified to confirm that it refers to legal
downloads.
Now that we have received this assurance from ntl we shall close this case
informally.
The advertisers' name, the industry sector and the medium in which the
advertisement appeared will be published on our website, www.asa.org.uk, on
29th October.
Thank you for taking the time and trouble to write to us and for bringing
this matter to our attention. The Advertising Standards Authority website
contains information about the ASA and the work we do, including recent
adjudications on complaints about advertisements.
Kind regards,
