Entity announces results of monitoring conducted on the internet, in 2015<\/em><\/p>\n

In 2015, ABES (Brazilian Association of Software Companies) removed from the web, in all, 70.476<\/strong> ads, links and websites with content that gave access to files that violate the Software Copyright of the entity's associates.<\/p>\n

The association accounted for 35.745<\/strong> links that have been removed for violating intellectual property rights, a result 7,3%<\/strong> higher than in 2014. They were also taken down 34.568<\/strong> ads promoting pirated products, 89,1%<\/strong> more compared to the previous year, which registered 18,279.<\/p>\n

In addition, the entity was responsible for taking down 163<\/strong> websites that offered illegal software downloads, 154%<\/strong> more than in 2014, when the entity removed 64 pages.<\/p>\n

The association continuously monitors the internet and notifies the portal itself and the access providers when it identifies content that violates the Copyright of Computer Programs.<\/p>\n

"This action aims to protect both companies and consumers, who may be exposed to viruses and, consequently, to information theft, which can cause irreparable damage", comments Jorge Sukarie, president of ABES.<\/p>\n

Once again, the entity had the support of PPPI - Intellectual Property Protection Program, from Mercado Livre, which promotes the removal of pirated products advertised within its portal. \u201cRemoval becomes more efficient with the work of the PPPI, which quickly evaluates each case and removes the illegal content reported in less than 24 hours,\u201d says Sukarie.
\n 
\nInternet monitoring is part of ABES 'efforts to promote healthy competition in the economy. The entity also works with an anonymous whistleblowing portal against software piracy. Anyone can make a report on the website: http:\/\/www.denunciepirataria.org.br<\/a>.<\/p>\n
