Vaulin had been pretty good at moving the site through proxy servers and keeping it online, but then he made the simple error of purchasing something legally on iTunes<span> </span><a href="https://techcrunch.com/2016/07/20/man-behind-webs-biggest-illegal-film-site-arrested-following-legal-itunes-purchase/" rel="external nofollow" style="color:rgb(45,144,255);text-decoration:none;background-color:transparent;">and giving away his location according to Tech Crunc</a>h:

The U.S. government has applied for his extradition after he was located after using the same IP address to make a purchase, presumably legally, on iTunes and then log into the KAT Facebook page.

Vaulin has been charged with conspiracy to commit criminal copyright infringement, conspiracy to commit money laundering and two counts of criminal copyright infringement. The attorney general suggested in a statement that KAT had “stole[n] more than $1 billion in profits from the U.S. entertainment industry.”

The authorities used the Kickass Torrents fan page to zone in on Vaulin’s email, owned by Apple according to Gizmodo, and then passed through the channels to catch him. It’s a long line of silly, careless mistakes.

“In an effort to evade law enforcement, Vaulin allegedly relied on servers located in countries around the world and moved his domains due to repeated seizures and civil lawsuits. His arrest in Poland, however, demonstrates again that cybercriminals can run, but they cannot hide from justice,”

There are many different areas and departments behind investigations of this type, that’s not disputed. But it does seem odd to be celebrating the bust in light of the many terrorist attacks the global community has faced over the past weeks and months. Some are already using this as an argument, but it should be noted that it isn’t meant to be some free pass to break copyright.

Torrent Freak is already asking if Kickass Torrents can make a comeback, with many mirrors and copycats popping up following the fall of the original site and its proxies. There’s also a fairly meaty revenue stream tied to the site,<span> </span><a href="https://torrentfreak.com/can-kickasstorrents-make-a-comeback-160721/" rel="external nofollow" style="color:rgb(45,144,255);text-decoration:none;background-color:transparent;">but Torrent Freak reports</a><span> </span>that none of these people are involved in the bust.

A ce que j'ai compris Kickass aurait fait une erreur en achetant un produit sur Appstore ce qui a permis aux autorités de les localiser. Je sais pas si vous avez compris la même chose que moi :lol: </p>
<p>
Toute fois je trouve ça un peu useless parce qu'il existe 26 milliards de Kickass mirrors donc bon... L'intérêt d'arrêter le géant je le vois pas, du moment que les données sont toujours en ligne ils sont perdant.

La quantité / diversité de torrents est largement supérieure à T411, et de loin.

Je confirme pour l'arrestation c'est bien à cause de Apple qu'ils se sont fait arrêter, plus précisément à cause de l'appli iTune ! C'est ridicule :lol: </p>
