"Gary Fung, the site’s Canadian operator, also agreed to pay $110 million in damages as part of the deal to end the long-running legal battle. He is unlikely to get his hands on that much money, but the Hollywood studios get what they want: the shuttering of a torrent search engine that pointed the way to pirated movies, music, videogames and software. The deal (.pdf) includes Fung sites called IsoHunt, TorrenTBox and Podtropolis."


WTF! 110 Million.... ??? ??? ???

Never let RIAA/MPAA take control of the Philippine government. Beware of those international talks that Pnoy attends. They are sneaking international laws without people's knowledge that will deny you of your privacy and net anonymity. The moment you notice that your government is starting to spy on your own people or bow down to Hollywood's demands, it's time to start another EDSA rally.
