is this going to mean that the site will go down and they will go after the users?

Would we in the US tolerate similar brazen lawsuits? ??

let’s think about that. Most sites (porn) eg: arn’t tollerated in IRAN Should Iran impose it’s law against the site owners?

I would expect to see an appeal. An unbiased L.A. judge? Yeah right.

An idiot’s ruling like saying internet is used only for hackers/pirates and since 30% are we should shut it down; Also RAM is always wiped as needed by the server without user control ruling will be revoked.

I think they’re attacking them for keeping the forms clean the reason why they know there should be something is they probably planted it then when the admins deleted the post they called foul as they should have logged it EVEN THOUGH there’s no proof that they came from the US as they blocked all US traffic.

Bloody double standards is what it is let spy just lay there it’s just a shell of what it used to be and with the way that they keep attacking I’m surprised if anyone in the US is not using a proxy anymore for anything shadier than taking a basket of cookies to grandmother’s house otherwise the big bad RIAA might just try and take a chomp out of them…

Wait a minute isn’t that a story as well damn where’s our woodsman when we need ‘em!

you know the netherlands needs to make up some law that the MPAA’s site violates and then sue them in a netherlands court. and make sure the judge is in it too so he can instantly hand down a ruling.

mpaa may have won but torrentspy could still refuse to hand over the servers and refuse to shut down resulting a forced action (raid).

or appeal to the next court.

DoA=Dead on Appeal.

Since no one can be required to create new records and since the court doesn’t even have jurisdiction since the servers are not in the country this ruling will most likely be overturned. Unless Torrentspy has assets in the US or its administrators are US citizens there is really nothing to seize in support of a judgment and no one to hold to account.
