For the unauthorized sharing of tens of thousands of files, the men face five years in prison and fines of $250,000 on each count."

"U.S. Attorney for the District of Connecticut Kevin J. O’Connor announced that a Grand Jury returned a three-count indictment, charging five men with copyright offenses they committed as members of the so-called ‘warez scene’.

The five, using names such as iced, kidzapped, niterangr and tcut, were caught as part of ‘Operation Higher Education’ - a component of ‘Operation Fastlink‘ - and are all charged with conspiracy."
