Pirates hide themselves in the mirror
Russia's largest torrent tracker is preparing to avoid blocking
Rutracker find a way to avoid sanctions under "anti-piracy law," said a company representative, the owner torrent tracker Dreamtorrents Corp. Lawyer Alexander Volkov.
If the IP-address of the hosting provider Rutracker will be blocked, as provided by federal law №187-FZ, which will enter into force on 1 August, the torrent tracker will retaliate.
"We will open a mirror under a different name and with other IP-based addresses. In addition, there are still some technical aspects that allow you to avoid blocking the site on the provider - I think that they should not voice, so as not to reveal all the cards, "- said the representative of the company in an interview," Zuckerberg call ».
Practice ban the entire site because of the placement of content on it is the fight against file-sharers as such, and not piracy, said the lawyer.
"That is the problem lies in the political sphere, we have nothing to do with it. In an extreme case will go to anonymous file-sharing networks such as tor, i2p and so on. And then the effect will be directly opposite to that lawmakers seek: to exercise control in such networks is not possible, and in addition to piracy, we get a lot of negative consequences "- warned the Wolves.
The representative described the tracker Law №187-FZ as "absurd" damaging "the idea of the Internet."
"Fortunately for us all, online extraterritorial, and the more absurd laws will operate in the territory of the Russian Federation in respect of the information space, the more visible the difference between what is" inside "and" outside ", - said the lawyer.
At the same time Rutracker already established relationship with the owners. Small rightholders administration sends requests for removal of content from the major holders registered on Rutracker own special accounts, through which they can close the hand that violate their rights. The intervention of the Moscow City Court and Roskomnadzor in the relationship between the site owner and the copyright can only complicate the procedure to protect licensed content. "We can and Moscow City Court to make such an account - let the distribution block, which receives a claim for them. This will prevent it from unnecessary red tape and adds efficiency ", - concluded the Wolves.
Meanwhile, on the Internet site "Russian Public Initiative" (ROI) is collecting signatures on a petition to abolish the "anti-piracy law».
"We believe that this law is directed not so much against the spread of illegal content, as against the development of the Internet in Russia, aimed at its destruction, as well as adversely affect the interests of the national internet industry and the rights of the public Internet," - said in a statement on the website ROI.
Earlier, human rights activists was voiced by a number of arguments against the introduction of the new law. His vague conceptual apparatus (under the concept of "information broker" and "persons providing access to the material or information necessary to retrieve it using information and telecommunications network" can be interpreted very wide range of subjects of mutual relations on the Internet); locking mechanism sites over IP allows the lock does not fall under the law of sites located on the same IP-address; pretrial blocking content at the request of the copyright owner in order imputation "interim measures" violates the principle of presumption of innocence.
In autumn, the State Duma will also consider a draft law on liability of Internet providers for failure to block access to content. This was stated by chairman of the Duma Committee on Culture, Stanislav Govorukhin at the joint meeting of the Council on Culture of the State Duma and chairman of the working group on topical issues of legislative regulation of copyright and related rights in the field of mass communications, ITAR-TASS reported.
According to Govorukhin, "it was made an important bill to administrative liability for Internet intermediaries, who do not take action to disable access to the information resources that hosts pirated information." "In the autumn session, I hope, we will take" - added director.
Culture Minister Vladimir Medina called blocking pirate sites "significant contribution" to protect authors.
"Anti-piracy law is a fantastic breakthrough in the field of copyright protection," - said the Minister of Culture, adding that the authors can not be there in the global Internet without protection.
"If the authorities can effectively block pirate sites and, crucially, sayty- intermediaries, it will be a significant contribution to the protection of the author, and contribute to the normal civilized relations in the market" - said the official.
Medina said that the question of extending the law to works of literature, music, and software will need to be back in the fall. In turn, chairman of the Duma Committee on Information Policy, Information Technology and Communications Alexei Mitrofanov believes that the next object of copyright protection on the Internet should be computer games.
Against the new law has already made an arbitrary blocking of the Internet Library Flibusta hanged on the home page of the cover with a call to protest. The slogan "Be a geek, poddezhi petition against the anti-piracy law" is now posted on the IT-resource Habrahabr. It is expected that in August, after the law took effect, to protest and mass Internet blackout will join many other popular sites in RuNet.
Law №187-FZ, known known as the "anti-piracy", "Russian SOPA», «the law on arbitrary blocking" and "law against Internet" protects the rights of producers of film, video and television on the Internet. On the first of August the Moscow City Court at the request of the right holder will be able to take measures to protect the right to place on the internet movie.
"The Federal Law" On Information, Information Technologies and Protection of Information "establishes the procedure, grounds and terms of administrative restrictions on access to information distributed in violation of the exclusive rights to movies," - reported on the presidential website.
On the basis of an act of the Moscow City Court the right holder will be able to apply to Roskomnadzor, a statement on the adoption of measures to restrict access to the site unlawfully distribute film, video and television products. Roskomnadzor for 3 days should require the hosting provider site to remove the specified content. Provider discharged daily report on the notice to the owner of the site. For even one day, the owner is obliged to remove content from the site. In case of refusal or omission of the owner of the provider restricts the access to the site - within three days of receiving notice of Roskomnadzor.
At the end of 2012 Roskomnadzor has demanded from the administration Rutracker remove hands from a torrent file containing, according to the agency, "the information about suicide."
