A US judge yesterday ordered popular torrent search engine TorrentSpy to break its own privacy policy by turning over users’ personal information for the MPAA to dig through. In response, TorrentSpy claims it has no personal information to give.
While we use Google Analytics for website statistics, TorrentSpy servers have never tracked your IP Address, the searches you make, or how you use the site. We are dedicated to your privacy and we are fighting for your rights!
While the veracity of this claim is up in the air — for all we know, it could be an MPAA trap — it would be nice to see yet another online startup stand up to Hollywood’s bullying.
