  1. Maybe it was by a mistake. The .click trackers are never open and some are completely closed.
  2. Two pirate IPTV services have become the latest victims in a growing line of services to be hacked by malicious actors. The platforms, which appear to be linked, have been ordered to pay a bitcoin ransom of around US$94,000. There is also a live threat to email customer data and banking information to the police and anti-piracy groups. In most countries blackmail is a very serious offense resulting in considerable jail sentences. However, that is proving no deterrent to an individual behind a series of hacks targeting pirate IPTV providers over the past couple of years. Two Linked Suppliers Targeted in New Hacks During the past two days, a pair of UK-based IPTV suppliers – SapphireSecure.net and KS-Hosting.com – became victims in what appears to be a series of hacks carried out by the same individual. Apparently connected by ownership, the platforms went down and began displaying similar messages on their homepages indicating that they had been seriously compromised. The messages that appeared on both sites are similar and it seems from the timing that SapphireSecure was taken down first, displaying a “Down for Maintenance” error and the following text. “Your IPTV provider from [redacted] in the United Kingdom has not secured your details and put you at huge risk. All the databases will be shared with the police and copyright protection agencies and posted online shortly. [Name redacted] has the option to still protect his customers and himself and stop this and there are two ways of him doing this, this is his choice and likely depends on how much he cares about his customers data.” The message on KS-Hosting goes a step further, again naming the individual allegedly behind both platforms while providing information relating to his current address, former address, and even his ISP. It also follows up with a threat to leak the personal information of staff members. Considerable Ransom Demands In common with previous attacks against IPTV providers, these IPTV brands (which appear to have the same underlying service) are being ordered to pay a bitcoin ransom to prevent the above threats being carried out. The amount is 2 BTC, which at current rates is around US$94,000, although it is not entirely clear whether this amount has to be paid overall or for each site hacked. According to the hacker, the bitcoin demanded has been balanced to account for the amount of money generated by the service(s), with 2 BTC estimated as less than two weeks’ revenue. “[H]e has stolen huge amounts of revenue from broadcasters and the content that he steals he does not give away for free he profits from this so we are stealing from the thief [sic],” the announcement reads. Alternative Way To Appease The Hacker Strangely, the hacker also gives the owner of both SapphireSecure.net and KS-Hosting.com a way out without having to pay a ransom. The demand is for the services to completely shut down, with no chance of a resurrection, while refunding money back to subscribers to compensate them for their lack of service, “as this is not their fault.” On the surface, the demands seem somewhat contradictory. If the owner of the platforms doesn’t pay, then customers will be punished. However, if he pays or shuts down they will not, since this is not their fault. It appears, therefore, that as long as the services’ operator is punished financially, that will be considered enough not to punish the customers. This is painted as the owners’ choice but quite obviously, he didn’t set those terms. No Ransom Paid – Yet While some believe bitcoin is the holy grail of anonymous payments, transactions for a bitcoin wallet are public information and if we take a look at the hacker’s wallet (which may have been set up for this purpose alone) we can see that no ransom has been paid. Blackmailing people who are already on the wrong side of the law could be an effective way to encourage payment but anecdotal evidence provided in relation to previous cases suggests that paying this particular hacker off doesn’t necessarily work, since he reportedly comes back for more – and more – when people pay. The other sizeable issue in this case is that the information leaked by the hacker already seems to allow interested parties to discover who is behind both services, meaning that beyond protecting customers’ information, the damage appears to have been done, ruining any incentive to pay. The key here, it seems, is for service operators and their customers to be more cautious when it comes to launching and/or using a pirate service. Then, when they fall victim to hacks (which are by now frequent and common knowledge), any information obtained will be of limited use. If either operates in the open, with no caution in respect of identities, then this type of blackmail will continue to prove enticing to hackers.
  3. People who downloaded and/or used pirated software owned by Siemens are about to become part of a copyright infringement lawsuit in the United States. According to the company, 142 yet-to-identified Comcast users were observed using unlicensed software. As a result, the developer wants Comcast to hand over their personal details so they can be pursued for damages that could reach $150,000. Downloading and streaming copyrighted movies, TV shows and music accounts for the majority of online infringement but there are large numbers of Internet users who pirate software products too. These can include operating systems such as Windows 10 or the popular range of image and video editing tools available from Adobe, for example. They often require greater skills to consume than standard media and there is always a chance that software vendors will be available to identify ‘cracked’ software when there is an online component. Siemens Files Lawsuit in a Texas Court Last Thursday, Siemens Industry Software Inc (SISW) filed a copyright infringement lawsuit in a Texas court against 142 ‘Doe’ defendants. The complaint says that to date, SISW has been able to match their ISP IP address to infringing activity but does not currently know their full identities. What SISW is saying, however, is that the alleged infringing behavior has taken place in the court’s district, either by a defendant downloading its software illegally and/or using its software when using an ISP in the district. Specifically, Siemens points to a number of its product ranges, including NX, Solid Edge, Femap, Star CCM, and FloTHERM, accusing all 142 ‘Does’ of breaching SISW’s rights by using a “computer with an Internet connection” to download and/or use its copyrighted works. “Plaintiff is informed and believes that the foregoing acts of infringement have been willful, intentional, and in disregard of and with indifference to the rights of Plaintiff,” the complaint reads, noting that the company is entitled to statutory damages of up to $150,000 per work. In the alternative, SISW requests actual damages, in which case each defendant must provide an accounting of their use and/or downloading of the software, including the revenues and profits obtained as a result. In addition, SISW says it is entitled to injunctive relief to prevent any additional copyright infringement. Putting Names to IP Addresses, With Help From Comcast SISW notes that while it has the IP addresses of the alleged pirates “and/or accompanying network information” associated with them, the company has not yet discovered their true identities. However, with the help of Comcast it believes it can do so. “SISW has contacted Comcast to inquire on its policy and procedure related to seeking information sufficient to identify the persons associated with certain IP addresses identified as having illegally downloaded SISW’s software. Comcast has indicated that they will comply with our request if SISW obtains a Court Order accompanying any subpoena requesting such information,” the complaint reads. “[S]ISW’s discovery request is specific. It seeks only the names, addresses, telephone numbers and email addresses, of the persons associated with the IP addresses that SISW has collected. Notably, SISW is not seeking any content of any emails or other communications associated with these individuals.” How Did Siemens Track Down The Alleged Pirates? In similar cases, where a copyright holder seeks the identity of an alleged pirate, the companies in question tend to obtain IP addresses from BitTorrent swarms where the content was shared. However, Siemens does not allege any peer-to-peer sharing, does not mention BitTorrent, and specifically mentions downloading and/or use of pirated software. “To protect its investment in the Software and its intellectual property rights, SISW investigates unauthorized downloads. Through this process, SISW can identify certain IP addresses associated with each illicit use and download,” the company writes. At this stage then, there is insufficient information to determine how Siemens obtained the IP addresses in question. However, it seems possible that the software listed in the complaint may have the ability to ‘phone home’ with information that could include the type of software being used, its licensing status, along with the IP addresses of the machines where the software was installed. In any event, SISW proposes that after identifying the subscribers behind the IP addresses, Comcast should be given seven days to notify those individuals that their details are being sought by Siemens. In turn, those subscribers should then be allocated 21 days to contest the Siemens subpoena, should it be granted by the court. Quite what Siemens will do with these personal details remains a question for now but could become apparent should the company decide to file lawsuits against non-cooperative alleged infringers.
  4. I would hit her and the guy that's fucking her
  5. The animated series Joker beats them all.
  6. The movie industry can look forward to a stellar year if we go by recent comments from producer Anne Hurd, who's known for The Walking Dead and the Terminator trilogy. Hurd expects that the new felony streaming bill, which was approved late last year, will generate a revenue boost of up to 10%, returning "billions of dollars in stolen revenues." We're skeptical. At the end of 2020, U.S. Congress passed the spending bill. The legislation package includes various copyright-related changes, including a new plan to criminalize streaming piracy services. The Protecting Lawful Streaming Act (PLSA), as it’s called, was only introduced a few days prior and was approved without any notable debate. This stands in sharp contrast with earlier ‘felony streaming’ plans, which in part triggered the SOPA and PIPA protests. Copyright holders, however, never gave up on the idea. They continuously stressed that streaming piracy should be brought on par with downloading infringing material and with the new law, their wish is granted. Targeting Commercial Pirate Streaming Services The new proposal amends US copyright law by adding a section that allows commercial streaming piracy services to be targeted while leaving individual streamers out of the crosshairs. Specifically, the bill makes it unlawful to provide a service that’s primarily designed to show copyright-infringing content, has no significant commercial purpose other than piracy, or is intentionally marketed to promote streaming piracy. Tailoring the bill to commercial services is an important distinction that makes it more balanced than earlier versions that were proposed in the past. This means that average YouTube and Twitch streamers have little to worry about. Hollywood is Happy Needless to say, Hollywood is happy with the new law which should make it easier to shut down streaming sites. This includes veteran producer Gale Anne Hurd, who’s known for The Walking Dead and the Terminator trilogy. In an op-ed published by Deadline this week, Hurd notes that the law comes just in time as piracy has “become more popular than ever” during the COVID pandemic, referring to statistics released by MUSO last year. Although she doesn’t mention that the numbers subsequently dropped to new lows, the sentiment is clear. Piracy has to stop. 10% Extra Revenue This is where the new felony streaming law can do wonders. According to Hurd, it allows US law enforcement to swoop in and start shutting down pirate streaming services. “But now, with the passage of the PLSA, U.S. law enforcement can finally start to shut down these for-profit criminal enterprises,” Hurd writes, adding that this will result in a spectacular boost in revenues. “With its passage, we can anticipate that legal digital sales and rentals will increase by as much as 10%, which will inject billions of dollars in stolen revenues back into the struggling legal economy, helping to bring back jobs for creatives who have been hit hard by the pandemic.” While we don’t want to ruin Hollywood’s party, we seriously doubt that they can count on billions of dollars in extra revenue. Nor do we think that the law will trigger a 10% decrease in piracy. Pirates Are Resilient If history has shown anything it’s that the piracy ecosystem is extremely flexible. When one site shuts down, people simply move on to the next. Over the years the U.S. Government has already launched several criminal prosecutions against alleged pirate sites, including KickassTorrents and Megaupload, but that hardly made a dent. In her article Hurd also mentions the Megaupload case, acknowledging that this didn’t stop piracy. The producer argues that it helped to slow things down, which may have been a temporary effect, but the academic literature is divided on this topic. Hurd also notes that the new law may dissuade some people from starting a pirate streaming site or service. This seems more likely indeed, but even then, there are always people who are willing to enter the criminal realm as long as they can make enough money. Download Sites Thrived, Crime or Not If we look back at the past two decades, we see that thousands of torrent sites and download portals were launched, even though the operators were at risk of being criminally prosecuted. Why would that be different with streaming? But for a minute let’s assume that piracy will indeed plunge this year. Would that really result in billions of extra revenue? Where would all that money come from? Where Are Those Billions Coming From? Research has shown repeatedly that pirates are already the most prolific media consumers. They often turn to unauthorized channels to complement the demand they can’t afford or are not willing to spend. Will these people shift their spending habits when they can’t pirate – which means they can’t do other things with that money – or will they simply consume less? Admittedly, some people may trade in their pirate IPTV subscriptions for legal alternatives, but will that generate billions in revenue? All in all, we agree with Hurd that the felony streaming bill will benefit the movie industry. It may deter some people from starting a pirate service. However, Hollywood shouldn’t be disappointed when those billions of dollars don’t come pouring in immediately.
  7. Every week we take a close look at the most pirated movies on torrent sites. What are pirates downloading? 'Bliss' tops the chart, followed by ‘Space Sweepers'.

  9. Nombre maximal d'utilisateurs atteints
  10. Depends on your needs. Long term seeding or you will constantly add and delete huge torrents. 500GB enough or you need 2TB or more. Going the DIY way can be a rewarding experience but if you not tech savvy it's better to buy something pre-made.
  11. And Hollywood still don't get it that maybe it's time to start an online streaming service. Just like with Napster, they were suing users and Napster and it took some years for music companies to realize that people want to buy digital music online.
  12. So many cheaters in online games and publishers don't care as long they are spending money. If you cheat and haven't money they will kick you, but if you are a big spender they look the other way.
  13. It was great for the time it came out, but tried to rewatch it few years ago and it was meh... Only good the first time I would say the American Pie serial is always good.
