http://www.fact-uk.org.uk/ I was at an independent cinema yesterday and for the first time saw a FACT infomercial. It went on before the ads. It basically threatened the audience with criminal charges if they attempted to record the film. The infomercial was quite frankly offensive. I assume that such things are regulated by the ASA ( http://www.asa.org.uk ) and I am thinking of complaining. I am particularly annoyed about the term 'copyright theft'. Before I do, has anyone else seen this ad? Is this a recent/ubiquitous phenomenon? If you have seen it, do you think there good grounds for a complaint, or should I just fume silently?
