Thread: Movie Piracy Crackdown Begins, Internet Sites Seized

From CNBC:

The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) just announced a major takedown of nine movie piracy sites that illegally offered first-run movies, some within just hours of their theatrical release.

This action is part of an anti-piracy initiative targeting Internet counterfeiting and piracy "Operation In Our Sites" that ICE and the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York announced Wednesday.



ICE, which is part of the Department of Homeland Security, seized nine domain names: Movies-links.TV, nowmovies.com, thepiratecity.org, filespump.com, planetmoviez.com, zml.org, tvshack.net, ninjavideo.net and thisninja.net.

I hope they won't go after trackers.

wow this is terrible news you would think ICE would have something better to do with the immigration problem in the USA right now, but I guess they do n't

Here is a little more detail..
