I have taken the decision to step down as SysOp here on Anthelion. Our start was rocky but we got past that and we're here now and stable. I have got the site as far as I feel that I can take it personally. Now it is time for me to hand over the reigns to others. @.Auge will be taking over as the new site SysOp. He has done a remarkable job and has earned it. @.kzmgd has done an incredible job of making Anthelion what it is today, and it can only grow and get better with his amazing development skills. @.Frontclip has done a terrific job with his uploads and is also a trusted Administrator. With these guys you can be sure that the future of Anthelion is bright and in safe hands. See you! Discuss this post here

New research reveals some interesting findings regarding the volume, senders, and targets of takedown notices. One of the most intriguing findings is that hundreds of thousands of domain names disappear, shortly after they are targeted by complaints. Takedown notices are a vital tool for copyright holders who want to make sure that infringing copies of their work are not widely distributed. Every week millions of these requests are sent to hosting platforms, as well as third-party services, such as search engines. Quite a few of the major players, including Twitter, Google, and Bing, publish these requests online. However, due to the massive volume, it’s hard for casual observers to spot any trends in the data. Researchers from Queen Mary University of London and Boston University aim to add some context with an elaborate study covering a broad database of takedown requests. Their results are now bundled in a paper titled: “Who Watches the Watchmen: Exploring Complaints on the Web.” The research covers all takedown requests that were made available through the Lumen Database in 2017. The majority of these were sent to Google, with Bing, Twitter, and Periscope as runners-up. In total, more than one billion reported URLs were analyzed. Most takedown requests or ‘web complaints’ were copyright-related, 98.6% to be precise. This means that other notices, such as defamation reports, court orders, and Government requests, make up a tiny minority. The researchers report that the complaints were submitted by 38,523 unique senders, covering 1.05 billion URLs. While that’s a massive number, most reported links are filed by a very small group of senders. “We find that the distribution of notices is highly skewed towards a few extremely active senders. The top 10% of notice senders report over 1 billion URLs, in stark contrast to just 550K by the bottom 90%,” the researchers write. Not surprisingly, the list of top senders is entirely made up of anti-piracy groups and trade organizations. In 2017, the top senders were Rivendell, Aiplex, and the UK music group BPI. On the domain side, the results are skewed as well. The top 1% of all reported domain names were targeted in 63% of all complaints. In other words, a small number of sites are responsible for the vast majority of all takedown notices. These and other figures provide more insight into the various takedown characteristics. What we were most surprised about, however, are the researchers’ findings regarding the availability of the reported domain names. The researchers carried out periodic checks on the domains and URLs to verify if the websites are still active. This revealed that a few weeks after the first takedown notices were filed, 22% of the reported domains were inactive, returning an NXDOMAIN response. “Many domain names are soon taken offline and 22% of the URLs are inaccessible within just 4 weeks of us observing the complaints. Hence, it is clear that we shed light on a highly dynamic environment from the perspective of domain operators too,” the article reads. With a total dataset of more than a billion domain names, this suggests that hundreds or thousands of sites simply disappeared. Whether the takedown requests have anything to do with this is unclear though, as many site owners may not even be aware of them. The disappearing domain names mostly use more exotic TLDs, with .LOL being the most popular, followed by .LINK, .BID, .SPACE, and .WIN. The vast majority of these (97%) have an Alexa rank lower than one million, which means that they only have a few visitors per day. It’s not clear why these domains disappear and the authors of the article stress that follow-up research is required to find out more. It would not be a surprise, however, if many of these are related to spam or scams that rely on temporary search engine traffic. Finally, the article also observed worrying activity carried out by copyright holders. For example, some use seemingly fabricated URLs, as we have highlighted in the past, while others send hundreds of duplicate notices. All in all the research should help to provide a better understanding of how takedown requests impact various stakeholders. This type of transparency is essential to improve procedures for the senders, but also to prevent abuse. “Transparency is critical and, as a society, it is important to know how and why information is filtered. This is particularly the case as we have found that these mechanisms might not be always used wisely,” the researchers conclude.

Due to the BUG in the station, the user receives the HR warning and list, and everyone does not need to pay attention to it. The current HR is in the testing stage. I hope everyone knows, don't panic.

The directive was approved in April, and goes into force in June Poland has officially challenged the European Union’s recently-approved controversial copyright directive, according to Reuters, saying that the legislation would bring unwanted censorship. The country filed its complaint yesterday with the the Court of Justice of the European Union. Poland’s Deputy Foreign Minister Konrad Szymanski said that the “system may result in adopting regulations that are analogous to preventive censorship, which is forbidden not only in the Polish constitution but also in the EU treaties.” Polish MPs predominantly rejected the measure (Two abstentions, eight for, 33 against, six no-votes, and two missing) when it was voted on. Tomorrow morning #Poland will bring a case before the #CJEU against the copyright directive, a disproportionate measure that fuels censorship and threatens freedom of expression. #Article13 #Article17 #ACTA2 pic.twitter.com/2VmQV8nFWu — Chancellery of the Prime Minister of Poland (@PremierRP_en) May 23, 2019 The Council of the European Union officially approved the directive in April, and it goes into force on June 7th, 2019. Following that action, EU member states will have until June 7th, 2021 to produce their own laws to implement it. The legislation is designed to update copyright law, and contains a number of controversial clauses, such as Article 11, the so-called “link tax,” which will allow publishers to charge platforms such as Google to display news stories, and Article 13, which says that platforms would be liable for content that infringes on someone’s copyright. Users for platforms such as Facebook, Google, YouTube, Wikipedia, and others fear that the directive could be detrimental to how they use the site — content platforms aren’t liable for what they’re hosting, provided they make the effort to remove anything that is infringing on one’s copyright, like music or pirated movies. Sites would now have to proactively ensure that copyrighted content isn’t making it onto the site. As my colleagues James Vincent and Russell Brandom noted last year, sites might have to resort to implementing a filter, which “would be ripe for abuse by copyright trolls and would make millions of mistakes. The technology simply doesn’t exist to scan the internet’s content in this way.”

A bad time for the TamilRockers.com as few members of the portal who remain the admin of it have been arrested. The site has been giving sleepless nights to the filmmakers in Kollywood as they were quick to post the pirated movies of the South as and when these hit the screens in the past. As per reports, the site has been uploading a number of sites from the South Indian film industry along with English and other language-based movies on their website. The reports also suggest that the portal has some links with the global piracy rackets as well. Of late, the site has become a popular place to download a number of South Indian movies and has thus remained in huge demand for the people. Many film lovers have been accessing this site to watch a number of movies. These include Kabali and other films as these remained expensive at the multiplexes. So, to beat the cost of the tickets, people were quick to take resort in sites like these. Of late, the filmmakers were gearing up to clamp down the site and its owners and finally they were able to nab them against the popular piracy channel KickassTorrent. Despite facing a tough time by the makers of the films like Kabaali, the site like TamilRockers used to upload the films and enjoy a good response from people to download the movie. They kept on changing their domain names avoid get noticed and caught. However, in the recent past, someone asked to freeze their operations during the time of a big-time film release. They kept on releasing the pirated version of the film that led the cyber cell to take stern action against them to pull them down and start things in the right direction by arresting the admin.

It’s been 15 years since this great site was born. Numerous torrent names such as Kickasstorrents and Limewire have been taken down. Governments have gone after piracy and tackled it. But this phenomenon with 25 million users still using its services lives on. I remember back in the 6th grade when I was rustling through the pages of a biology book that belonged to an 8th grader. Well, puberty had hit us back then and we were overwhelmingly curious. Video games and shows are a big deal too. Still, are. However, everything wasn’t available to us. Because they all have costs. The world of torrents is something most internet users would’ve marvelled at. If they came across it at some point in time. Thousands of software, audiobooks, and everything else you can imagine. A virtual palace, upheld by a couple of hundred pirates who manned this great ship. Now, the owners and the handlers have been dogged relentlessly by the authorities. There have been lawsuits in countries like Sweden, where the judiciary has gone the extra mile and put people in prison and handed them an invoice of a few million dollars. Instead of receiving a shared file from a single uploader, torrents have decentralized downloads, as data from various users are put together. This was perhaps the first application of blockchain. Fredrik Neij and Gottfrid Svartholm Warg, along with Peter Sunde were the original operators of the site.

For the first time in 15 years, a DMCA subpoena is signed off by a US court clerk. The Hawaii district court has accepted the arguments of an experienced attorney. Verizon will now have to give away the identities of 20 of their customers who are allegedly pirates. A DMCA subpoena submitted by the rightsholders of the film ‘Hunter Killer’ to the US District Court of Hawaii was signed off by the court clerk without the involvement of a judge, ending a precedent practice of many years of denial to approve these requests. DMCA subpoenas are shortcuts to regular subpoenas that copyright holders were taking in the early 2000s to help them get the identities of individual pirates through the ISPs that were serving them. When the ISPs expressed their objection to this practice, the courts decided that they were right and that DMCA subpoenas should only be signed-off when they target hosts of pirated material. This was the standard practice for more than 15 years now, and the legal representatives of the rightsholders didn’t even bother to give the route a try. Rightscorp had submitted a DMCA subpoena to an Atlanta court in 2015 trying to get the identities of Birch Communications clients and failed, while LHF Productions tried again this January in a Utah Federal Court, but also had their request denied by the court clerk. It all seemed to remain the same on that part, and no further DMCA subpoena submissions were expected for years. However, merely months after the last one, an experienced attorney named Kerry Culpepper decided to request a DMCA subpoena against Verizon in Hawaii, and this time, it got signed-off. Now Verizon will have to hand over the IP addresses of 20 of its clients who are accused of downloading the movie ‘Hunter Killer’ via BitTorrent. As this will not require lawsuits to be submitted, obtaining the identities of these alleged pirates has become way cheaper and easier. With this information in their hands, copyright holders could either ask for settlements or build a bigger case based on it. The question that arises now is whether we have an individual event or a revival of the DMCA subpoena. Now that the Hawaii court clerk decided to accept the arguments of Kerry Culpepper about the validity of the DMCA subpoena for this case, more rightsholders are bound to give this a try in the near future. That said, we will soon get to learn if DMCA subpoenas have really returned or not. For the people involved in piracy, this is obviously huge news, as the people behind the movie that you are downloading via P2P could be many steps closer to your identity now.
