Steve Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Another BitTorrent site bites the dust: - UKNova has stopped offering BitTorrent links after becoming the latest file-sharing site to be targeted by copyright defenders. Its administrators said they took the action after receiving a demand from the Federation Against Copyright Theft (Fact). UKNova had pitched itself as a free catch-up TV and radio service and had asked its members not to add material available for sale elsewhere. It has been in operation since 2003. UKNova's use of BitTorrent links meant it did not keep any pirated material on its own servers, but rather provided the means for its members to download and upload material to and from each others' computers. Fact confirmed it had been in contact with the site, but declined to provide more detail when contacted by the BBC. Full article HERE.
