Want the Sith DVD? Go to Usenet
Usenet newsgroups dedicated to piracy are seeing a resurgence in activity as file sharers seek less-policed areas of the internet to trade illegal data.
Some pirated movies are now even appearing in newsgroups before being released worldwide across popular P2P systems like BitTorrent. The alt.binaries newsgroups -- which mostly carry pirated software, ripped movies and MP3s -- have logged a steady and substantial rise in traffic over the last few years. Posts to a key "warez" newsgroup, alt.binaries.multimedia, have quadrupled from 700,000 in 2001 to 2.8 million last year, according to Microsoft's Netscan System, which logs all Usenet traffic. Meanwhile, more than 60 GB of complete DVD rips are now being posted each day to a single Usenet forum, according to stats at NewsAdmin, which tracks Usenet usage. _______________ Source/Read More: wired news |
