This is what annoys me about the MPA. If they have a problem with something on xyz.com then why don't they either go after xyz.com or the person that put the content on xyz.com!? Don't go after the people that downloaded it from xyz.com, or the ISP that supplied a pipe to xyz.com, go after xyz.com themselves... if there was no content on it there'd be nothing for people to download!

I think they tried that and failed. So they are looking at alternatives.....

Regardless this is the way its going to go.

Spain, France and the US are doing this and more, the DEA is still to fully come in to effect in this country, I think it comes in to full force next year.

Plus arent the EU also discussing a european firewall to block certain sites etc...

Also those saying that just use a VPN, well yes, for a while a VPN will allow you to carry on, but eventually they will get round to working on ways to stop piracy via vpn's etc...

Its all a matter of time, resources and technology and not to mention laws!

If anything comes of this all we need to do is simply use Tor, plus newzbins have already prepared for the possibility of their DOMAIN being seized by American Immigration and Customs Enforcement (aka ICE), go and grab mafiaafire's redirector plugin for firefox.

Provided you use the above along with SSL then it's pretty much impossible for them to stop or see what we are doing :D Happy Days, I've just bought more Newzbin credit and I'm tighter than a ducks butt. MPA, ICE ,,,,etc are pee'ing in the wind tbh.
 
Interesting quote
The issue was highlighted by Spyro Markesinis, the vice president of legal affairs for Momentum Pictures, who told the Guardian that it’s Oscar-winning film the King’s Speech was widely available on the site: “The survival of our business depends on the revenues we receive for our content. Our recent film, The King's Speech, is available on the Newzbin2 website without our consent. Neither we, nor the filmmakers, receive anything for this"

I know 3 people that were not interested in the film, saw a downloaded copy and then went and bought the BluRay. How does that work?

When BT upgrade cabs to FTTC does that mean all the regular POTS lines get transformed across the fibre backhaul?

Would seem a bit inefficient having both fibre + copper leading back to the exchange.

The Original POTS lines I think will stay as what FTTC is doing is moving the DSLAM and DSL cards OUT of the exchange and in to these REMOTE CABS that is what in all effect FTTC is. The POTS lines are all connected back through various hardware to the Fiberoptic (21CN as its known LoL) Backhaul in the exchange any how.

Most of the FTTC CABS will only need 6 or 8 Fiber optical strands to them any how as with what I have read each strand can carry up to 32 multiplexed signals and with it being optical there is virtually NO LOSS upto 30km+

Only the last part from the POTS box to the customers premises is twisted copper pair, as the VDSL2+ signal is fed in to the POTS box to the customer. And as most POTS boxes are within 500m of there connected customers speeds of 40mbps will be common, and when the speed increase comes any one less than 350m from there CABS and POTS BOX should get 80mbps as at this speed the VDSL2+ signal incurs high losses with the bandwidth used.

If money, time and the need to keep a service going then BT could ripout all the current network and start a fresh LoL NEVER going to happen in all honesty:D:D
 
WoW! It seems BT have bent over and taken it up the ass!!!
Is it just me or are all BT customers unable to access Newzbin ????
Obviously it's still accessible via Tor/VPN.
