JFC… this is like asking the weatherperson to stop the rain, or asking a bus driver to clear traffic.

“The precise details have not yet been made public, but according to GEMA the injunction “extends the responsibility of services providers towards rights holders” in the event that copyright works are continually made available.”

On internet of almost any provider, they continuously allow people to share/download/upload stuff that is copy protected. Mafiaa and friends will try to use this ruling to shut down the internet as this broad interpretation applies to almost all isp/s.

I almost forgot, I agree. the destruction of the archive is a crime. those responsible should be flamed crispy black and spanked (its the usenet way after all).
