| | | tv-links.co.uk raided & shut down.
not sure if this should be in the news & politics or here...
but yeah. tv-links.co.uk is gone. apparently it was a multi-national co-operative effort by the police, and associated copyright infringement bodies.
more info here, on the new freedom blog.
also here, on the guardian website.
discuss. |

| | And now a dozen similar sites will just have to take up the slack. 
That aside, I have to wonder how this case will come out. He isn't hosting content; he's just providing the links.

| | | Do you guys remember what some of the links were? I remember the DivX ones were Stage6, and a lot of things were from a Japanese site called Tudou. What else was there....? |

| | For everyone who's pissed off about this, there's a site just like it here: http://powerflv.nabolister.com/
Gosh, those FACT and IFPI bods really aren't kidding around anymore, are they? First OiNK and now this. Ah well, it's only a matter of time before some other site is established to replace OiNK. |
