TorrentSpy, ISOHunt to Begin Search Filtering

[Hairbautt]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v383/Hairbautt/News%20Images/Copyright.jpgUsing technology from FileRights, TorrentSpy and ISOHunt have signed on to filter copyright infringing content.

TorrentSpy has already been ordered to start tracking users (http://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/f-news-section-95/t-torrentspy-ruling-weapon-mass-discovery-194439)--a decision which is being appealed--and has taken an additional step to "show that it is making efforts to end illicit use of its site."

FileRights is a software company that "helps content owners automatically remove their [infinging] content from torrent sites" by using a hash-based system to identify copyrighted material.

I wish they didn't mess with isohunt. I've really started to like it as a public tracker search engine.

It won't work. Yes, I say that with conviction. (http://www.google.com/search?q=define%3Aconviction&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a)
