Huge hammer blow for the French torrent tracker scene. Waves of arrests have taken place, and historic sites/teams are shutting down quickly. This situation affects both the brains behind the platforms as well as some moderation actors. FW, UNFR, Predb, Nexum, Xander, QTZ, Tenmaland, Supply, and Slay3r have either closed or announced imminent closure. Behind every username are real people whose dedication built communities over years, our thoughts go to administrators as well as affected users, particularly those without means to access culture legally, the most precarious, and everyone fighting against digital locks that deny access to knowledge and works. #torrent #tracker #p2p #piracy #drm #law #justice #arrest #security #french #france #it
