  8. Don't the major book publishers realize that each court injunction and seizure incentivizes book pirates to distribute books using more sophisticated file sharing technologies that are resistant to censorship and surveillance?

  9. Ars Technica: “Yo what?” LimeWire re-emerges in online rush to share pulled “60 Minutes” segment. “On Reddit, users shared links to a LimeWire torrent, prompting chuckles from people surprised to see the peer-to-peer service best known for infecting parents’ computers with viruses in the 2000s suddenly revived in 2025 to skirt feared US government censorship.”

  10. What’s everyone’s favorite way to #pirate music? I tried #usenet and #lidarr but I had only access to a fraction of the music I usually listen to. (#sonar and #radarr are working perfectly for me tho)
    What about #bittorrent #youtube or whatever?

  11. "An appeals court on Friday blocked studios and record labels from using expedited subpoenas to identify internet users suspected of illegally sharing songs, movies and TV shows.

    The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that copyright holders cannot use the Digital Millennium Copyright Act to subpoena internet providers that merely act as conduits for infringing material.

    The Motion Picture Association and the Recording Industry Association of America had warned that blocking such subpoenas will hamper efforts to fight digital piracy.
    (...)
    The 9th Circuit had not previously addressed the issue, but its ruling aligns with decisions from the D.C. Circuit in 2003 and the 8th Circuit in 2005. Since those decisions, copyright holders have largely opted to file lawsuits against John Does before seeking subpoenas to identify the defendants, rather than using the expedited DMCA process.

    “This decision doesn’t prevent copyright holders from identifying online infringers,” said Victoria Noble, a staff attorney at EFF. “It simply forecloses one mechanism for doing so that is particularly susceptible to abuse.”"
