the most popular search engine for torrents (even more than TPB) KickassTorrents has been discharged, both your primary domain as some others with the KAT in your URL. Meanwhile, its owner, Artem Vaulin, a Ukrainian 30, was taken under arrest in Poland on charges of copyright infringement and money laundering at least since 2008.
The government of the United States has been the executor of that apprehension through an extradition process, in fact, a federal court in Chicago was ordered to proceed against Artem Vaulin under the aforementioned charges, seize a bank account and “knock down” immediately a set of domains belonging to the portal. Some temporarily survive (or access is made possible through proxies), but the expectation is that stop working in the next few hours.
Highlights in the specialized portal TorrentFreak that US federal set him up to the owner of KickassTorrents to impersonate advertisers is, until Apple collaborated by providing information on the IP which, apparently, the owner proceeded to take for a transaction through iTunes.
a billion dollars is what is says in court papers on the amount of money KickassTorrents illegally distributed in the form of multimedia content protected by copyright. It subtracted expect what more news comes on this important blow to one of the pillars of the world of torrents
