P2P Operators Plead Guilty
From SlashDot:
In the first such criminal convictions in the U.S., two peer-to-peer hub operators have
pled guilty
to conspiracy to commit felony copyright infringement. The two men were subjects of raids
last August after Department of Justice investigators downloaded
content valued at US$25,000 retail from their servers, the Movie Room
and Acheron’s Alley. They face sentences of up to five years in prison,
and up to US$250,000 in fines, in addition to the possibility of being
forced to pay restitution to copyright holders.
OMG, they’re actually doing it!

For some reason I think the more they do these ‘crackdowns’ the more people will find ways of hiding their actions. I suppose its good that the robbers are bought to justice, but being SO many people downloading so MUCH its hard to see how they’re going to get em all…
