    It is common knowledge that torrents are used for downloading pirate movies, music, games and much more. Despite this BitTorrent wants to make the world aware that they are not involved in any of the above.

    Their vice president Matt Mason wrote a blog post last week stating that their open-source, peer to peer technology is used to share content, but they do not endorse any form of piracy whatsoever.

    "We don't host infringing content. We don't point to it. It's literally impossible to 'illegally download something on BitTorrent,'" Mason wrote. "To pirate stuff, you need more than a protocol. You need search, a pirate content site, and a content manager. We offer none of those things. If you're using BitTorrent for piracy, you're doing it wrong." ...

    The on-going argument between Google and the copyright industry looks set to continue in public and privately. The point of disagreement lies within Google refusing to remove pirate websites from its search results with Eric Schmidt from Google enforcing this stance. He goes on to state that Google is in the process of making changes to decrease piracy, although deleting websites and monitoring the web goes against Google’s primary principles and philosophy. ...

    In light of new research carried out by a UK research team it is believed that people using BitTorrent to download music or films is likely to be monitored.

    The research team from the University of Birmingham claims that within 3 hours of a user downloading a media file it will be logged by a monitoring firm. When the team was asked about the level of monitoring they all unanimously expressed their “surprise”. The information monitored could be used by copyright holders to bring to an end the high levels of illegal download. The team of computer scientists carried out the research over a three year period by developing software which impersonated a BitTorrent file-sharing client and then logged all the connections made to it. ...

    Rather funny thing happened to VLC player. Not so long time ago HBO sent a copyright removal request to Google where they included a download link for VLC player located on domain torrentportal.com.

    VideoLan is one of the most popular video players today for viewing of all types of files from PC without additional codecs needed. The software doesn't store any real files somewhere on their servers or offer any features to access copyrighted content.

    Mentioned takedown notice is more a false reporting as planned action against the player. It shows well that Google seems not to check reported URLs after they were submitted. On the other side it's understandable that Google is not able to check every link. Monthly about 15 million will be reported, which is a very huge amount for manual check. ...

    In its ongoing war against online piracy, the MPAA is currently recruiting new soldiers. One of the open positions that caught our eye recently is that of an “Internet Analyst,” tasked with manipulating media files and monitoring social networks, communities and forums. For those still in school the MPAA also has a job opening for an unpaid summer intern to assist with various “content protection” projects. ...

    For years, Apple has been telling the public to "think different" when it comes to computers, and in the process the company has become wildly successful.

    Now, however, the tables have been turned, with a different outcome. For its three "Genius Bar" broadcast ads that debuted during the London Olympic Games, Apple itself thought differently, and as a result it was learned on Monday, August 7 that the ads have been pulled from TV (you can still see them on Apple's home page, though).

    The net changes the world’s power structures in a much more fundamental way than changing the way a few groups of entrepreneurs are able to make money. The net is the greatest equalizer that humankind has ever invented. It is either the greatest invention since the printing press, or the greatest invention since written language. The battles we see are not a result of loss of money; they are caused by a loss of the power of narratives.

    Well, that certainly didn't go the way Apple would've liked. A UK judge presiding over one of many lawsuits involving Apple products—specifically concerning the Galaxy Tab line's alleged infringement of the iPad's design—has ordered Apple to publicly post on the UK version of its website that Samsung did not copy the iPad.

    Too many internet users are making poor decisions when choosing their passwords.

    We've spoken time and time again about the importance of choosing hard-to-crack, unguessable, unique passwords that (provided the website you are using looks after its databases properly) will make life very difficult for password crackers.
