#Music labels & publishers sued Cox Communications in 2018, saying the company had failed to cut off the #internet connections of subscribers who had been repeatedly flagged for illegally downloading & distributing copyrighted music.
At issue for #SCOTUS was whether providers could be held legally responsible & required to pay steep damages—a billion dollars or more in Cox’s case—if they knew that customers were pirating music but did not take sufficient steps to terminate their access.
