Court Orders The Pirate Bay To Delete Torrents The Amsterdam court today ruled that The Pirate Bay must remove a list of copyrighted torrents from their website within three months. In addition they have to block Dutch users’ access to parts of the site where copyrighted torrent can be downloaded. If not, the three ‘operators’ will have to pay penalties of 5,000 euros ($7,500) per person, per day.In an attempt to ensure that Dutch citizens can’t access The Pirate Bay, BREIN took three of the tracker’s founders to court.

The anti-piracy outfit won the case and Fredrik, Gottfrid and Peter were ordered to block Dutch users, a decision they decided to appeal. Today the Amsterdam Court announced that the earlier default judgment has been nullified. That is, the three operators don’t have to block access to all Dutch users.

It was concluded that The Pirate Bay itself is not necessarily guilty of copyright infringement. However, according to the Court the site does assist in copyright infringement by allowing and encouraging its users to share torrents. The defense had argued that not Fredrik, Gottfrid and Peter were not the owners of the site, but a Seychelles based company named Reservella.

The Court rejected this defense as the defendants could not name the current owners or provide any documents proving that the site was sold. It concluded that the three defendants are responsible for the site. The Court ruled that The Pirate Bay has to remove a list of torrents linking to copyrighted works.

The list is to be provided by BREIN, and is similar to the earlier ruling against Mininova. The defendants are given three months to comply, if not, they will face penalties of 5,000 euros ($7,500) per person, per day.

Download 20 % of game files from torrent ,then stopping it and deleting it. Is it still illegal..... Jul 18 2009, 01:49 AMTorrents ARE legal. In fact, the charges that the Swedish government made up to prosicute the owners of the Pirate Bay was along the lines of "Aiding Copyright infringement".

Torrents are completely legal, and if you look around, there are tons of legal torrents. The only thing that really sucks about torrents is if you find an old torrent and nobody seeds it. Comment/Reply (w/o sign-up)akashiJul 18 2009, 06:16 AMSome ppl said that because other ppl are torrenting licensed stuffs out there.

But the torrent itself is legal for me. I download linux ISO and other free stuffs using torrent wink. Gif and it's true that it sucks if no one seeding the file you wantComment/Reply (w/o sign-up)truefusionJul 18 2009, 09:21 AMConcerning the legislation (or judicial) system, if I can argue this, objects are not marked illegal, since objects by nature are neutral.

Only actions can be marked illegal. For that reason, torrents will always be legal. Even the contents can be marked legal even though they may contain cracks to the program.

For example, the torrents that contain cracks (almost) always contain the demo of the software. Merely downloading the contents of the torrents and installing the demo from the contents is not illegal. It becomes illegal when you take the time to apply any cracks to the program—the act of "unlocking" the program through means not allowed by the author(s) of the medium.

Cracks are useless if not put to use—and I don't mean to imply that they should be put to use, especially since I consider myself a programmer. Comment/Reply (w/o sign-up)TheDisturbedOneJul 18 2009, 10:46 PMGood point. And even the cracks aren't illegal, unless they are used.

Comment/Reply (w/o sign-up)akashiJul 18 2009, 11:29 PMHm, but that doesn't mean we can have / distribute licensed materials such as mp3, movie, and dvd, right? Comment/Reply (w/o sign-up)FruitRocksJul 18 2009, 11:30 PMWell, you try saying that to a judge after you downloaded a few gigs of mp3's and see what happens. Torrents themselves aren't illegal, its what you choose to download.

Right, what I said doesn't mean that. In those cases any DRM would have already been broken, and unless the creators themselves were giving away the torrents, it would be illegal to bear ownership of those forms of media if you do not already own that form of media.

From what I hear you are entitled to a back-up of your data though you are not allowed to give away that back-up. My statement, though, was mostly directed to computer programs. Ripping is a different context than cracking.

Comment/Reply (w/o sign-up)TheDisturbedOneJul 19 2009, 02:07 AMI have downloaded torrents before that have lower quality of mp3s. Often when I rip right from a CD, the files are too big for me to have more than 20 albums on my iPod, so I get a lower quality from torrents. It would probably be perfectly legal, as long as you own the original media.

I even think that you are allowed to get a backup if the disk is damaged or scratched, but I'm not completely sure. Sources: http://www.trap17.com/index.php/Torrents-Illegal_t67287.html .

Download 20 % of game files from torrent ,then stopping it and deleting it. Is it still illegal... What I HATE is when people think that torrents, just torrents are ILLEGAL. THEY ARE NOT ILLEGAL.

They are files containing information, of WHERE to download something. Even if the torrent file is FOR downloading something illegal, it isn't illegal. At least I don't know how the laws work in that situation, it may be considered illegal since its kind of helping somebody do an illegal action.

But it still makes me VERY angry when people say in general that torrents are illegal and things like "Torrents should be shutdown" or "You can't talk about torrents! They are illegal" so on and so forth! It irritates me very very much!

1 It's technically not illegal if you stopped the download, but if that file was bait, put up by a game company trying to see who downloads it, they then could get your IP address and track you down and accuse you of illegally downloading. However, there are millions of people out there downloading stuff from torrents, so the chances of anyone finding you is pretty small. Plus, I don't think gaming companies are looking for downloaders.It's mostly the RIAA of the recording industry.

" "Computer: Virtual memory. Can deleting files increase this?" "Is it illegal to download torrents, while im at it does anyone know any good torrent searchers and a torrent downloader" "Is it illegal or not to download music from Internet for free? " "Is it illegal to download music off of the internet?

Was just wondering because I saw a commercial and I'm confused.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
