Yeah I've read about COICA. It really is pretty scary stuff for the internet. That said, I still think it only applies to .com .net .org, etc (i.e. those under US control) not country codes, etc such as .cd. If they go after all TLD's, including other nations, there is no doubt the DNS will fracture almost overnight.

However, I think they are intending to force ISP's to block domains in the US which they can't seize or shutdown. We just went through a one year battle to fight off an internet blacklist and filter in Australia. In the end, it was stopped mostly because ISP's found it would be impracticable on a technical level to filter traffic without adversely effecting internet speed.

Could be wrong though, but it will really be a sad day for the internet if this stuff comes to fruition (though there is a lot of support rallying against it from legitimate organizations and people). What is even worse is disheartening is seeing people involved in the internet, who should understand and appreciate the freedom it brings cheering it on.

Someone said something to me the other day that stuck. Doing business on the internet used to be so easy, and that's why it flourished. But as the years go on, the benefit of operating online and not having to worry about any particular jurisdiction or nations laws, and being able to focus on and just operate and grow your business, is evolving into the disadvantage of now having to worry about every jurisdiction in which your website is accessible. I think this trend is only going to continue, and it will mark the end of the great experiment the internet is if it does.

Don't expect porn to get the same favorable treatment as the music and motion picture industries. Or maybe I am wrong, doing something similar with porn infringement could dry up a good part of the available free porn. So really, this could go either way ...

And when it does happen...remember it's not the legit people who are "cheering it on" that caused it. We aren't the thieves that are bringing this shit on. It's the fucking pirates dancing around loopholes in DMCA that are causing all of this.

Piracy is affecting our livelihoods. At that point I'm not going to care about the "great experiment" of the internet if it's going to allow thieves to take food off my table. And that's the way it is for anybody who makes their living via the internet.

I think the only way you will see these types of domain seizures affect porn is when the government starts seizing porn site domains.

will you feel the same way when use the same circumvention of the due process to take your site away from you

remember one of the sites that got killed didn't even host a single torrent file it was a meta search engine (the same effect as going to he advance search on google and selecting the file type .torrent)

Barry-xlovecam · 11-27-2010, 10:44 PM

They're back! Looks like they will get their due process and their day in court ... Or, the cat and mouse game will just continue on.

Don't have delusions of this affecting porn favorably. If you think any government is going to be the "white knight" that saves legal porn you are dreaming.

XXXMovie4M · 11-27-2010, 10:58 PM

i hope they don't take down torrents, i'm making some good $$$ off suing the theives!!!

this is just starting to get good...

Homeland Security seizes domain names
By Sara Jerome - 11/26/10 04:25 PM ET

The investigative arm of the Homeland Security Department appears to be shutting down websites that facilitate copyright infringement.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has seized dozens of domain names over the past few days, according to TorrentFreak.

ICE appears to be targeting sites that help Internet users download copyrighted music, as well as sites that sell bootleg goods, such as fake designer handbags.

The sites are replaced with a note from the government: "This domain named has been seized by ICE, Homeland Security Investigations."

For instance, borntrade.com, 51607.com, and amoyhy.com have each been seized.

One of the site owners told TorrentFreak that his site was shut down without any notice or warning.

The effort comes as Congress considers the Combatting Online Infringement and Counterfeits Act (COICA). Critics, including Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) say it is too heavy-handed. He has vowed to put a formal hold on the bill.
