Federal Court Issues Permanent Injunction For Isohunt
suraj.sun writes with this excerpt from NewTeeVee: "Judge Stephen Wilson of the US District Court of California, Southern District, issued a permanent injunction (PDF) against the popular torrent site Isohunt yesterday, forcing the site and its owner Garry Fung to immediately prevent access to virtually all Hollywood movies. The injunction theoretically leaves the door open for the site to deploy a strict filtering system, but its terms are so broad that Isohunt has little choice but to shut down or at the very least block all US visitors. ... The verdict states that they have to cease 'hosting, indexing, linking to, or otherwise providing access to any (torrent) or similar files' that can be used to download the studios' movies and TV shows. Studios have to supply Isohunt with a list of titles of works they own, and Isohunt has to start blocking those torrents within 24 hours."
Last time I visited the US was about 10 years ago. We have everything we need up here, believe it or not.

I am not going to make any clever comment either about the difference of hosting vs tracking or any clever comment about the jurisdiction limits of country X against citizens of country Y.
Capital, money, power, oppression, violence, lethal viruses, data, information, DNA, encryption keys and hashes have no country because they belong to God.
This is about the real meaning of the primordial sin: You should not know, touch, consume or desire what God does. Repent as long you still have a soul, preferably before committing the sin, because desire is the real sin and God knows your desires.
Noone will be spared. Everybody is guilty in the eyes of God, even when proven mentally incapable or having a clever lawyer. And no, I will not make any clever comment about the difference between God and His Holy Church.
You have been warned.
