However, researchers said that sales of French iTunes store increased before the implementation of the law, researchers said, "It is not the effect of the Three Strike Act, but a school that is established and operated by a country or school corporation, Break downPublic educationIt is suggested by research efforts and research results. "

In the Three Strike Act, we mainly monitored the P2P network, but many of the respondents believe that the actual monitoring is done more extensively, and, unlike the P2P network, it was not monitored There was no change in behavior that altered illegal downloading act regardless of whether there was monitoring, including users of sites that can download files directly, file sharing and pirated downloads.


The Three Strikes Act implemented by the Hadopi administration is not a deterrent to pirated illegal downloads and the government has decided to cancel the penalty of "break of the net" that will be imposed with a third warning and related to this law The budget that was used has also been cut.
