Title: Homeland "security" siezes domains
Post by: Coach is Back! on November 27, 2010, 09:16:27 AM
2012 can't come fast enough. Doesn't this fuck head have anything else better to do than get elbowed (which I thought was great) in the mouth playing basketball and taking shit over?




The investigative arm of the Homeland Security Department appears to be shutting down websites that facilitate copyright infringement.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has seized dozens of domain names over the past few days, according to TorrentFreak.

ICE appears to be targeting sites that help Internet users download copyrighted music, as well as sites that sell bootleg goods, such as fake designer handbags.

The sites are replaced with a note from the government: "This domain named has been seized by ICE, Homeland Security Investigations."

For instance, 2009jersey.com, 51607.com, and amoyhy.com have each been seized.

One of the site owners told TorrentFreak that his site was shut down without any notice or warning.

The effort come as Congress considers the Combatting Online Infringement and Counterfeits Act (COICA). Critics, including Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) say it is too heavy-handed. He has vowed to put a formal hold on the bill.

The US has been on a downward spiral for a loooooooong time. Can't you see foreign groups that does not have Americas best interest in mind, are working together as a team to undermine everything that makes America good. Just like in Russia, they used marxism to divide the Russian people against themselves. America is becoming more and more communist every year. :-X :-X :-X :-X

yeah, I remember it and supported it. They just weren't doing random taps, they were doing taps on suspected terrorists, terrorist organizations, terrorist conspirators, etc, not just people who were breaking domestic laws. I said when that was going on "if you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to worry about".

Lol I love how you state other countries don't have american's best interest in mind. America don't even give a shit about themselves, not to mentions it's closest neighbour canada. Regardless this shit is fucked up and scarry as shit, hopefully china, don't snap down on piracy until this shit is out of the way.

Nothing could be worst for the welfare of the globe, if the freedom of the internet is shot down. Our free world corporations goal is to insure that shit ain't free, and in the 3rd world, you got gov's who want nothing more than to mointer and ban sites that they deam inapropiate, it's truely a fucked up thing to happen.

Your such a ignorant shit. This stuff was going in this direction from the get go, the fact that your unaware how this shit works is so childish it's not fit. You break foundation laws, and your unleashing a highway of further possible abuse. It's common sense, christ dude your amateur. Just look into the shit with commies into the 50's in turn into a quest to stop anything deemed questionable even when it had nothing to do with commies.

The shit was put in motion by bush, you can't expect obama to get in the way of that kind of shit, the flood gates are opened you'll never get them shut. There's to many special interest groups making way to much money to ever let this shit die.

I don't mean other countries, i mean inside the US. Puppet politicians, the media, MTV, the federal reserve. etc...

They have replaced European culture with a trash culture, MTV, jersey shore etc. Generation nothingness.
The educational system in the US. American kids can't compete with Europeans or Asians in the same age groups.
Degeneracy has become the ideal in America, degeneracy is what is promoted by the media. We've gone from Mozart and Beethoven to Lady Gaga and Eminem.

Do you think all this has happened by accident?


If the internet goes down, we will be no better than North Korea. We will be at the grip of the media masters, completely.

 :o

this guy was arrested for hyper-linking...not housing the content.  when did that become illegal?




probably the most popular video streaming site around has been busted by UK authorities.

It’s a sad day for streaming video fans everywhere as news has been reported that TVLinks has been shut down and the owner, a 26yo man from Chelteham in the UK, was arrested.

Update: TVLinks alternatives
Update#2: TVLinks to Return ‘Soon?’

Though not hosting an actual content himself, and rather merely providing links to where particular titles can be found, he was nonetheless apparently charged for the “facilitation” of copyright infringement.

“Sites such as TV Links contribute to and profit from copyright infringement by identifying, posting, organizing, and indexing links to infringing content found on the internet that users can then view on demand by visiting these illegal sites,” said a spokesman for Federation Against Copyright Theft (FACT) today.

What makes the charges so odd is that he was again, only providing LINKS to pirated content, and never actually hosted anything. Can linking really be considered “facilitation?” If I link to TVLinks am I then a co-conspirator?

Here’s the TVLinks disclaimer:

TV Links is not responsible for any content linked to or referred to from these pages.
TV Links does not host any content on our Servers
All video links point to content hosted on third party webites. Users who upload to these websites agree not to upload illegal content when creating their user accounts. TV Links does not accept responsibility for content hosted on third party websites.

The notion of making linking a crime is ridiculous and completely out of line. How would anybody be able to discuss controversial sites or content if they first had to ensure the legality of the destination? Would we have to make it so that links were simply spelled out and not HTML capable(www.tvlinks.co.uk vs TVLinks)? Maybe this is the answer because I think then it could fall under the category of speech. Furthermore, it really shows that Google is getting away with bloody murder via sites like YouTube and Google Video.

FACT goes on to revisit the same old diatribe about how piracy is stealing food from form the tables of people who work in the film industry, but with guys like Brad Pitt reportedly getting $20million bucks to make trash like “Babel” who’s really robbing who? Couldn’t Pitt be paid a little less, say $15 million, and leave that other 5 for the “starving” film crew? I guess not

“The theft and distribution of films harms the livelihoods of those working in the UK film industry and in ancillary industries, as well as damaging the economy,” said FACT’s director general Kieron Sharp.

What’s even more surprising is that the move was part of an overall strategy to crack down on piracy, though all it does is target a middleman who tells you where to go. More importantly, will its demise really compel people to find content legally or to suddenly run down to their local cinema? I think not, and all it means, as is usually the case with piracy, is that people will just go elsewhere.

Either way R.I.P. TVLinks, it was nice while it lasted. Maybe once again we have a case where Sweden’s the only answer.

What's so bad about seizing sites with counterfeit goods and copyrighted items??  I once got ripped off for a Movado watch which literally pissed me off as I spent a ton of money on it.
