trying to erase history only has the effect of burying it,, it donesnt go away. oh and remember, “anti piracy” outfits. deliberatly “pirate” stuff themnsevles to harvest the ip addresses of unwary sharers. All theese”anti piracy” laws came about not through democratic consent but by virtue of the fatness of the wallets of the”rights” holders. how many musicians, do you hear making a cry and hue abot”piracy”, not much. its just the monolithic ivory towers trying to protect their ill gotten proffits at the expense of hard working musicians who offen creat music for the sheer love of doing it and get made into commodities against ther will.

No, what it means is that they initially propose a big fat love-in with the server hosts to tempt them into a carnal liaison which will avoid the facing legal action.

If that fails, they then imitate the server hosts, hoping to annoy the sysadmins by copying everything they say for hours on end until the buckle under the irritation and do as Aiplex say.

Only if this second option fails does the intimidation begin…

Fiends!

Is it just me, or do big companies such as these never face charges for DDoS attacks? The last time I checked, to commit such an attack within the US would be a felony offence.

Sadly, they’re not alone V0.
The torrent community also has to deal with false and erroneous DMCA or take-down requests from idiots who don’t even hold the copywrong.

They try to fool us by saying they represent the copywrong holder, but what they’re doing, in reality, is a form of reverse-specultaive invoicing :o

For every take-down that they succeed in getting, only then do they contact the copywrong holder and say, “Look we got these bastards to remove your content. Aren’t we so good for you? Care to pay us for our effort and good work please?”

They never had permission from the copywrong holder to do this in the first place, hence the rather clumsy “reverse-speculative invoicing” term.
