The Delhi High Court has restrained over 100 "rogue" websites from unauthorisedly streaming animation films 'Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse' and 'Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse' on their platforms. The court's order came on a lawsuit by Sony Pictures Animation Inc which stated it was the copyright holder of the upcoming release 'Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse' and has not licensed the right to broadcast it to any website.
The court was told that the animation film, which is a sequel to 2018 blockbuster 'Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse', was available for viewing on various websites in violation of its copyright and sought directions from the court to prevent the streaming.
