The makers of the movie 'Hellboy' have filed an amended complaint against the popular torrent site MKVCage. While the site disappeared after the legal pressure became public, the lawsuit isn't going away. Instead, the movie company now links MKVCage to Pirate Bay co-founder Peter Sunde, who they describe as a 'notorious copyright thief.' A group of movie companies, operating under the parent company Millennium Funding, is pursuing legal action against key piracy players. Through various copyright infringement lawsuits and DMCA subpoenas they have gone after targets ranging from Popcorn Time through YTS, to Showbox and MKVCage. The case against MKVCage, filed last summer, had an immediate effect. Not long after the complaint was submitted to a Hawaii District Court, MKVCage became unreachable. At the same time, the uploader stopped pushing torrents to other sites as well. Aside from a brief comeback, the site remains missing in action today. However, that doesn’t mean that the lawsuit is over too. A few days ago, the makers of the film Hellboy submitted an amended complaint against the alleged operator, a Pakistani man named Muhammad Faizan. Hellboy Productions accuses Faizan of promoting and distributing pirated copies of its movie. The complaint also lists 35 John Doe defendants, who presumably downloaded the film. While many of these allegations were already present in the original complaint, the new version does introduce a new name into the mix. According to Hellboy Productions, MKVCage is linked to a ‘notorious copyright thief.’ The movie company writes that Faizan began “operating the website mkvcage.nl” together with 1337 Services LLC, which is associated with Pirate Bay co-founder Peter Sunde. “1337 was created and is controlled by Peter Sunde Kolmisoppi,” Hellboy writes, adding that “Peter Sunde Kolmisoppi is a notorious copyright thief who was sentenced to prison in Sweden for his creation of The Pirate Bay.” https://torrentfreak.com/images/faisun.jpg This sounds rather ominous. However, the complaint fails to mention that 1337 Services LLC is the company behind Njalla, which is a service that allows people to privately register domain names. And indeed, a Whois lookup for MKVCage.nl shows 1337 Services as the registrant. This pushes the joint operation claim into an entirely different light. Njalla has many customers, including the Catalonian government, but it doesn’t operate the sites which are tied to these domains. Peter Sunde informs TorrentFreak that he’d never heard of MKVcage until now. He is also not aware of any abuse emails regarding the domain name. “As far as I know we haven’t even received an abuse e-mail regarding MKVcage, but I guess that’s their strategy. If they send abuse e-mails they might get services suspended and thus not being able to sue people,” Sunde says. The Pirate Bay co-founder stresses that 1337 Services LLC is owned by a foundation, which is information they would have gladly shared if asked. The company is operated by many people who may feel left out now, as they may also want to be labeled as copyright thieves. “My co-workers may be upset that they don’t get any credit for 1337’s work now, so I’m so sorry. They also want to be notorious copyright thieves,” Sunde notes. Hellboy Productions attorney Kerry Culpepper informs TorrentFreak that he did send a letter (pdf) to 1337 Services’ registered address, a PO Box in Nevis. As the letter suggests, they would have preferred to resolve this matter directly with Njalla. That said, the letter would probably not have sorted any effect as Njalla doesn’t generally suspend domain names following requests from copyright holders. Culpepper preferred not to comment on the allegation that 1337 Services is operating MKVcage together with Faizan. Neither Sunde nor 1337 Services are defendants in the case. They are little more than a passing mention, perhaps to make it appear as if there’s something more going on than there is. In earlier court filings the movie company actually referred to 1337 Services as a privacy service, which wasn’t clarified in the most recent filing. Finally, Sunde points out that he’s not really a copyright thief. While he may have duplicated a file or two, he never ‘stole’ anyone’s copyright, which is simply impossible. This is something the US Copyright Office can confirm. While Sunde is not in any trouble, in this case, Faizan is. Hellboy Productions accuses him of direct and contributory copyright infringement. The movie company claims to have suffered $270,902.58 in damages and would like to have that compensated.

Temporary issues with site pages not loading properly.

The Guardia di Finanza, the Italian police unit tasked with financial crimes, has reported 223 subscribers of pirate IPTV services to the judicial authorities. This is the first large scale operation against IPTV users worldwide. According to the authorities, the targeted users risk a hefty fine as well as a potential prison sentence. Last summer the pirate IPTV market was thrown into turmoil when Italian authorities took down Xtream-Codes. The IPTV management service was believed to be connected to 5,000 pirate services that catered to around 50 million end-users. The enforcement actions caused problems at many IPTV services, with IPTV traffic dropping by half, but in the weeks that followed many providers managed to recover. That doesn’t mean, however, that law enforcement authorities are giving up. This week the Guardia di Finanza (GdF), the law enforcement agency connected to the Italian Ministry of Economy and Finance, announced another IPTV-related enforcement operation. This time, it is targeted at customers of these pirate IPTV services. Following an in-depth investigation, Guardia di Finanza tracked down 223 subscribers of illegal IPTV services. These people were subsequently reported to the judicial authorities, where they face further prosecution. According to the law enforcement agency, the investigation remains ongoing. This means that more IPTV subscribers may be identified and reported in the future. The subscribers in question are being held responsible for the crime of “receiving stolen goods.” If found guilty, they risk a penalty of 25,000 euros as well as an eight-year prison sentence, the authorities state. The investigations were carried out with help from Italian anti-piracy group FAPAV, which provided technical assistance. FAPAV sees IPTV piracy as a major and growing threat to the entertainment industries. Federico Bagnoli Rossi, Secretary-General of FAPAV, thanks Guardia di Finanza for its operation which he believes is needed to show that end users are also at risk. “The operation is crucial because, for the first time in Italy, it doesn’t only focus on the operators of the pirate portals but also the users of these services,” Rossi says. FAPAV hopes that these enforcement actions will continue. It believes that the growing problems pirate IPTV services cause are underestimated, so clamping down on all aspects is essential. “In just one year we have seen an increase of over a million [pirate IPTV] users,” Rossi notes, adding that copyright holders are severely affected by these illegal services. If and how many of the reported IPTV subscribers will indeed be prosecuted is unknown. However, the operation does show that subscribers are not untouchable, which will likely be used as a warning message to others. Source: Torrentfreak.com

Google Translation: Very strong and warm celebration of the cat station releasing more than 30000 posts!!! I remember that I saw it in a post that someone was asking for medicine, but the person said that they should not be a small site. So he asked if there were 30000 torrents in the cat station. It seems that some people used 30000 torrents to distinguish the big site and the small site in their mind. Although I don't quite agree with the concept and distinction of "big site and small site", because the original purpose is to serve everyone, so the difference between big site and small site comes. But in any case, from that day on, I really planted a seed in my heart. At that time, like Lao Wang, I secretly set a small goal of 30000 in my heart. Ha ha, it's finally reached today, so I really appreciate that we have been supporting the growth of cat station and sharing with each other on this warm platform, laughing, crying, happiness and disappointment together. In order to express great gratitude to all of you in a moment, this time, no matter what kind of hair you have or what kind of hair you have, the whole station staff will send 30000 cat food as a token of thanks, and there is no need to celebrate the opening of the station. It ends at 0:00 on Thursday In addition, I recently saw a conversation with someone who didn't know who was in the screenshot. The content is because the welfare of the cat station is good, so it's just rowing. I never planted for the cat station, and I've been mixing with the welfare all the time. I'm really disappointed to see this, because if we all think like this, we won't do seeding for you, so the posts in the station will slowly become unable to download, so I hope that you can try to protect seeding for you as much as possible when there is still space on the hard disk, as the logo of cat station wrote, "I'll do it for everyone." Start with me, not everyone. Now that the small goal has been achieved, due to the above reasons and the development needs of some other cat stations, the distribution conditions of this cat food delivery activity may need to be changed later, which is still under consideration. But in any case, the cat station will be as warm as ever. Thank you again for your support. I hope you have a good time in the cat station
