On December 03, during the 6th Brazilian National
Anticounterfeiting Council (CNCP) meeting, a memorandum of
understanding (MOU) was signed by and between CNCP and advertising
market agents and associations to reduce monetization of websites
and mobile apps that violate intellectual property rights. The goal
is to minimize the placement of advertising in digital spaces that
sell counterfeit products.
In addition to this document, the CNCP also signed, throughout
2019, other memoranda concerning online counterfeiting, such as the
memorandum with the United Kingdom and the US authorities for
cooperation and defense of intellectual property; and with the
World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) to create lists of
websites dedicated primarily to counterfeiting.
