Michelle Knight. Writer, photographer, programmer, truck driver and general, all round nut case. Life is a journey and that's what this blog will probably end up being. Let's see where we go, eh? ;-)
Going after pirates without inconveniencing paying customers...
The case was launched by anti-piracy group BREIN, which is trying to hunt down whoever uploaded more than 2,000 e-books to Usenet via the providers.
Eweka and Usenetter cancelled the accounts identified by BREIN but wouldn't hand over the account-holders' identity because that would violate strong Dutch privacy laws.
