File-Sharing Site MegaUpload.com Indicted for Internet Piracy; Shut Down by U.S. Officials

The federal action--and subsequent arrests of MegaUpload.com officials--appears to have sparked denial-of-service attacks on the websites of the RIAA, the MPAA, and other groups by the hacker collective Anonymous.

MegaUpload.com, one of the Internet's most well-known file-sharing sites, was shuttered by federal officials Thursday. In addition, founder Kim Dotcom (formerly Kim Schmitz) and three other executives connected to the parent company MegaUpload Limited were arrested in New Zealand.

The hacker collective Anonymous appeared to respond to the government's action by taking down several high-profile sites with a quickly coordinated distributed-denial-of-service attack, or DDoS attack.

Anonymous logoAnonymous logoAs of Thursday afternoon, Anonymous seemed to have shut down the websites for the RIAA, the MPAA, Universal Music Group, and even the U.S. Copyright Office. The timing of the indictment almost certainly fanned the flames of Anonymous’s anger, coming just one day after the group participated in a nationwide protest against the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA), which the group had vigorously opposed for months.

A 72-page indictment filed in U.S. District Court in Alexandria, Virginia (near Washington, D.C.), charges MegaUpload.com with conspiracy to commit racketeering, copyright infringement, and money laundering, among other charges connected with illegal use of copyrighted materials. The indictment was signed by U.S. Attorney Neil H. MacBride of the Eastern District of Virginia. Some of MegaUpload.com's servers reportedly are in Auburn, Virginia, which is in the Eastern District.

A statement from the FBI calls the action "among the largest criminal copyright cases ever brought by the United States and directly targets the misuse of a public content storage and distribution site to commit and facilitate intellectual property crime."

The indictment alleges that the criminal enterprise is led by Dotcom and Kim Tim Jim Vestor, 37, a resident of both Hong Kong and New Zealand. Federal statements say that Dotcom founded MegaUpload Limited and is the director and sole shareholder of Vestor Limited, which has served to hold his ownership interests in the Mega-affiliated sites.

Sta radi javno mnjenje/jurnjava za glasovima nezadovoljnih...

Upravo je u toku republikanska debata na CNN... i sva 4 kandidata su kritikovali i istakli da su protiv ovog zakona... Naravno, samo je Pol iskren ali i ovo je nesto.

Dobro,nisam rekao da ce biti ko na filmu,ali ne bih reko da ce ovo proci tek tako.

Sad bas gledam na wikipediji,i vidim da Anonymous nisu samo hakerska grupa,nego citav pokret koji postoji vec 10 godina.(mozda ste vi znali,ja nisam... ili sam zaboravio)


A ovo je zakon koji ce da utice na ceo svet,i to prilicno jako,jer se ceo jedan deo sveta,da tako kazem,vrti oko interneta.
Takodje,ovo nije ko Ocupy wall street,pa da imas prave demonstrante koje mozes da uklonis.Ovde ce sve biti virtuelno i rastrkano sirom sveta.


Ne znam,slazem se da je prerano davati bilo kakva predvidjanja i da se ne treba zanositi,ali ja licno mislim da ce ovo postati velika stvar.   Ovo je u sustini ko kad bi doneo globalni zakon o borbi protiv kriminala.Pa,kad se okome na tebe,nece ti biti dobro.  

Hebi ga, prave OZNA 2.0

koliko cujem serveri su im bili u Americi 

edit: naravno 

(CNN) -- "Hacktivist" collective Anonymous on Thursday took credit for taking down U.S. Department of Justice, FBI and entertainment company websites, following arrests in one of the federal government's largest anti-piracy crackdowns.

Federal agents earlier in the day arrested the leaders of Megaupload.com and shut down the popular hub for illegal media downloads.

Hours later, some of Megaupload's fans turned the table on the feds. Anonymous said it set its sights on the U.S. Department of Justice and the FBI. Both sites were working intermittently late Thursday, but portions of FBI.gov were not readily available. A law enforcement official told CNN the FBI was investigating.

Anonymous said 10 websites in all were targeted.

"We Anonymous are launching our largest attack ever on government and music industry sites. Lulz," the group said in a statement posted late Thursday on an associated Twitter account. "The FBI didn't think they would get away with this did they? They should have expected us."

The group also posted personal information on former Connecticut Sen. Chris Dodd, chairman of the Motion Picture Association of America, one of the targeted sites.

A Justice Department spokesperson, who refused to be identified, said its Web server was "experiencing a significant increase in activity, resulting in a degradation in service."

"The department is working to ensure the website is available while we investigate the origins of this activity, which is being treated as a malicious act until we can fully identify the root cause of the disruption," the spokesperson said.
'Anonymous' confront police

The website glitches came soon after various Twitter accounts associated with the collective took aim at the government.

Anonymous' favorite weapon for these attacks is what's called a "distributed denial of service" (DDoS) attack, which directs a flood of traffic to a website and temporarily crashes it by overwhelming its servers. It doesn't actually involve any hacking or security breaches.

"One thing is certain: EXPECT US! #Megaupload" read one tweet from AnonOps that went out midafternoon.

One hour later, the same account tweeted a victory message: "Tango down! http://universalmusic.com & http://www.justice.gov// #Megaupload"

Speaking of the Web attacks, an Anonymous representative said 5,635 people used a networking tool called a "low orbit ion cannon." A LOIC is a software tool that aims a massive flood of traffic at a targeted site.

The news comes as lawmakers have turned their attention to anti-piracy legislation. Protests erupted both online and offline this week against two bills under consideration in Congress: the House's Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) and the Senate's Protect IP Act (PIPA).

The bills are aimed at cracking down on copyright infringement by restricting access to sites that host or facilitate the trading of pirated content. But the legislation has created a divide between tech giants, who say the language is too broad, and large media companies, who say they are losing millions each year to rampant online piracy. (Time Warner, the parent company of CNN, is among the industry supporters of the legislation.)

On Twitter, YourAnonNews said Thursday's attacks meant an "involuntary blackout" for sites of SOPA supporters.

Universal Music's website went down Thursday afternoon. The music company had been locked in a legal battle with Megaupload over a YouTube video that featured many of Universal Music's signed artists promoting Megaupload's site.

The websites of the Recording Industry Association of America and Motion Picture Association of America were out of action Thursday afternoon, but they appeared to be back up later in the evening.

A spokesman for RIAA cast the attack as a minor hiccup.

"The fact that a couple of sites might have been taken down is really ancillary to the significant news today that the Justice Department brought down one of the world's most notorious file-sharing hubs," he said.

The Anonymous attack came soon after the Justice Department announced the indictment of seven individuals connected to Megaupload for allegedly operating an "international organized criminal enterprise responsible for massive worldwide online piracy of copyrighted works."

Authorities said the operation had generated more than $175 million in illegal profits through advertising revenue and the sale of premium memberships.

According to the indictment, Megaupload, which launched in 2005, was once the 13th-most visited website on the Internet, serving as a hub for distribution of copyrighted television shows, images, computer software and video games.

The site's popular MegaVideo subsidiary was widely known in tech circles for its copious selection of pirated content, including recent movies and episodes of hit TV shows.

Four of those indicted were arrested Thursday in Auckland, New Zealand, at the request of the United States. Three others remain at large.

The individuals indicted are citizens of New Zealand, Germany, Slovakia and the Netherlands. No U.S. citizens were named. However, Megaupload has servers in Ashburn, Virginia, and Washington, which prompted the Virginia-based investigation.

To shut down Megaupload, federal authorities executed 20 search warrants in eight countries, seizing 18 domain names and $50 million worth of assets, including servers in Virginia, Washington, the Netherlands and Canada.

In some of its attacks, Anonymous has targeted governments or companies it says are part of or support a police state.

The list of police officers and agencies targeted by the collective is long. From New York to Oakland, California, police websites have been hacked; personal information, including the home addresses of specific police officers, was posted online in 2011.

Zatvoren Megaupload!

Sajt za razmenu kompjuterskih fajlova Megaupload zatvoren je, a njegovi čelnici optuženi za kršenje zakona o pirateriji, saopštilo je američko federalno tužilaštvo.


U optužnici se navodi da je Megaupload koštao nosioce autorskih prava više od 500 miliona dolara smanjenih prihoda zbog piratizovanih filmova i drugih sadržaja.

Optužba je otvorena dan pošto je Wikipedia takođe bila zatvorena na jedan dan iz protesta zbog predloga zakona u američkom Kongresu koji bi trebalo da suzbiju internet pirateriju.

Ministarstvo pravde SAD navelo je u saopštenju da su Kim Dotkom, ranije poznat kao Kim Šmic, i još tri direktora sajta Megaupload uhapšeni u četvrtak 19. januara na Novom Zeleandu na zahtev američkih zvaničnika. Još dva optužena su na slobodi.

Megaupload su podržavali mnogi poznati muzičari, glumci i ostali iz industrije zabave koji su najčešće žrtve kršenja autorskih prava. Pre nego što je sajt zatvoren, na njemu je bila objavljena podrška Kim Kardašian, Ališe Kiz i Kanije Vesta.

U optužnici se navodi da je Dotkom, žitelj Hongkonga i Novog Zelanda, i s dvojnim državljanstvom Finske i Nemačke, zaradio 2010. godine 42 miliona dolara. On je osnivač, bivši direktor i sadašnji šef inovacija Megauploada.

Pre zatvaranja, na tom sajtu se nalazilo saopštenje u kojem se navodi da su optužbe za olakšavanje kršenja autorskih prava "groteskno prenaduvane".

"Činjenica je da je većina internet saobraćanja preko Megauploada legitimna i mi ćemo opstati. Ako industrija želi da iskoristi našu popularnost, rado ćemo ući u dijalog. Imamo dobre ideje. Molimo vas, kontaktirajte nas", navodi se u saopštenju.

Na Megauploadu su korisnici mogli da ostavljaju fajlove koji su previše veliki da bi se slali elektronskom poštom, da bi ih kasnije preuzimali drugi ljudi.

Takvi sajtovi mogu imati sasvim legitimnu upotrebu, ali se koristiti i za razmenu materijala koji je zaštićen autorskim pravima. Američko filmsko udruženja procenilo je da veći deo razmene materijala preko Megauploada, predstavljao kršenje autorskih prava.

Taj sajt je omogućio korisnicima da skidaju filmove, televizijske serije, kompjuterske igre ili muziku bez naplaćivanja, ali je naplaćivao pretplatu korisnicima koji su želeli da do novog sadržaja dođu brže. Takođe je davao prostor za oglašavanje.
