UK Criminal Action Against Film Piracy Site
The Guardian Unlimited reported Friday that law enforcement authorities have shut down the website tv-links.co.uk, a popular website that provided links to pirated copies of films and television programs, and arrested a 26-year-old man from Cheltenham, UK in connection with criminal offenses related to the facilitation of copyright infringement on the Internet. Much of the film content available on the site had apparently been recorded on camcorders at movie theaters.
