HOLLYWOOD - Twentieth Century Fox has asked Internet service providers to monitor message boards on which persons have posted notices offering downloads of Planet of the Apes and to pull the plug on their accounts, according to Screen Daily, the online edition of the British trade publication Screen International. "We trust that we will be able to count on your prompt action to ... stop the infringement of our rights," Fox said in a letter to the ISPs. One provider, Verizon, responded that the request was an effort to shift the responsibility for monitoring piracy on the Web onto the ISPs.
