Software pirates have launched an astonishing smash ‘n’ grab raid on the music biz, stealing the domain name of one of its foremost anti-piracy bodies.
The Pirate Bay has now taken up residence at IFPI.com, a domain once owned by the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI). The Pirate Bay now says the site will promote the International Federation of Pirates Interests.
The Pirate Bay is, of course, infamous for being the world’s largest BitTorrent tracker with over 630,000 torrents that comprise illegal rips of audio CDs, TV shows and movies, as well as software and video games.
