DVDFab.com shut down by court order
http://torrentfreak.com/u-s-court-order ... ds-140310/
"A New York federal court has granted the seizure of several domain names, bank funds and social media accounts belonging to DVD ripping software company DVDFab. Judge Broderick ruled in favor of AACS, the licensing outfit founder by Warner Bros, Disney, Microsoft, Intel and others." "Judge Broderick also ordered several banks and payment providers to freeze or stop processing the company’s funds. This includes PayPal, Amazon Payments, Visa and MasterCard." March 10/2014
The company violated the U.S.-only DMCA law that circumvention of copy protection even for fair-use purposes is illegal. The company is based in China, but the U.S. court ordered various domain registrars based in the United States to remove all of DVDFab's domain names. And of course they can cut off most payment systems because of their U.S. links.
Anyone feel a chill wind?
