European Pirates Arrested in Massive Police Operation

Posted by samzenpus on from the problem-solved dept.

freedumb2000 writes "Europe just witnessed one of the largest piracy-related busts in history with the raid of the popular movie streaming portal Kino.to. More than a dozen people connected to the site were arrested after police officers in Germany, Spain, France and the Netherlands raided several residential addresses and data centers. Kino.to hosted no illicit content itself, but indexed material stored on file-hosters and other streaming services."

    Kino.to goes down, welcome kino.so ! In any case, that domain would be more fitting for pirates.

    Of course the child exists. If it were a dream, I wouldn't be able to smell the fear.

    Posting anonymously because child rape jokes don't go down as well as, well, children.

    It was a massive effort (as in tax euros wasted), not necessarily a massive success.
