TorrentBox Legal Defence Fund
We received this letter on December 14th which informed us that the MPAA has filed suit against the individuals responsible for operating this site (www.torrentbox.com) for copyright infringement.In order to find out more about our legal rights on this matter, and possibly even fight this charge in court, I am asking all BitTorrent users to donate (no matter how small) to the TorrentBox Legal Defence Fund. Until I can afford to inquire a lawyer on this matter, I am turning off the ability to browse and download torrents from ths site. The tracker will remain on, and all torrents using it will now become anonymous and unknown to admins.
The bittorrent community is in dire straits, so please don’t let TorrentBox die like the other sites! -Hohead
This was posted on TorrentBox’s website (www.torrentbox.com), one of the few places I went to obtain my bittorrent files. They too have been hit by the MPAA’s barrage.
