BitTorrent Supports MPAA

Filed under: News — Chris @ 9:58 am

It looks like BitTorrent will be making changes to their search engine to stem copyright infringment. No surprise there, as they’re somewhat liable for putting links to “forbidden” content. The DeCSS cases against 2600 showed us that.

What is surprising is that the MPAA bothered to take the time to do this.. most users probably aren’t aware that BitTorrent runs a search engine. But I don’t really expect the various Ass. of America groups to do anything aside from showboating. And spreading viruses or sueing their customers.
