Thread: Szene-Insider verrät Geheimnisse und erregt Interesse von MPAA Anwalt

Ein weiterer "Szene-Pirat" gibt ein Insider-Interview und hat damit das Interesse eines Anwalts der MPAA geweckt. Sehr interessant & empfehlenswert!!!

Last week, a senior member of the warez scene took part in a rare interview. In it, he reveals some interesting things about this shadowy world but the question is: Did he reveal too much? MPAA pirate-chasing lawyer Espen T?ndel now says that The Scene will be “brought to justice”.

The guy we talked to is one of the few administrators of a Topsite in Norway. He’s in his mid twenties, is a student of programming and has been a part of the Scene for many years. He first became a Topsite Site-Op in 2003 and has since been responsible for adding users, banning ruleset violators and programming automating IRC-scripts.

In addition to being a Site-Op he also has his own home-based server where he downloads movies, games and TV-shows to and from the Topsites. He has a very fast Internet connection which make it possible to download a DVD movie in minutes.

Everybody keeps everybody informed

In addition to categories such as games, software, music and movies we have a news category on the Topsites warning against raids. Lamers are also posted in this news category. It’s also possible to find out who leaks warez to trackers and the P2P community. Those who leak will be banned from the Scene. It is very easy for the police to find those people who are spreading torrents.

One of the reasons it is quite difficult to break the Scene is due to a very sophisticated security system. The system we use on Topsites and IRC is SSL. This comes on top of Blowfish-aggregation on IRC. You have to log in to one of the Topsites to get the Blowkey password. Without Blowkey everything will be encrypted. The Topsites encrypt everything with SSL.

It’s not unusual to have 30 TerraBytes of warez on a Topsite. Last summer German police raided a Topsite which had 40 members. The following was posted on Topsites news sections to warn the entire Scene, (from German):

----New police action in Germany. This morning 40 members got a visit from the BKA, (Bundes Kriminal Amt). All user accounts etc…. Everybody that has visited the site is in great danger! -------

I miss you

Was haltet ihr davon? Meint ihr die MPAA ist jetzt schlauer als vorher? Meint ihr die Information können irgendwie der MPAA von Nutzen sein

Ich hoffe nur nicht, dass nun die Releasegruppen gefährdet sind...
Ohne Releasegruppen wäre das Leben fade

Jo, find ich auch ein wenig dürftig.

Kann mir gar nicht vorstellen das die MPAA damit was anfangen kann.

Also würd ich sagen mal wieder viel Wirbel um nix.
