A system that aims to curb Internet users from sharing copyrighted content is being rolled out in the U.S. after a number of delays. Backed by major Internet service providers, the Copyright Alert System (CAS) will require the ISPs to warn and educate users if alerted by owners of copyrighted material, and even throttle Internet speeds after six warnings, popularly referred to as "six-strikes."
