Canadian filesharing website shut down
The filesharing website QuebecTorrent.com was shut down recently in the latest of a series of filesharing shutdowns around the world. The lockdown Quebec-based filesharing service is generally being viewed as a victory for the music and movie industries.
This news has a number of other filesharing websites worried that they could be next. Sebastien Brûlotte, the guy behind QuebecTorrent.com, said that while he will respect the ruling, he is concerned about the outdated approach to dealing with filesharing websites.
And so the ongoing debate between the music and movie industries and the filesharing communities rolls on. QuebecTorrent.com will no longer be allowed to facilitate the downloading of copyrighted music and films. It’s always sad to see another filesharing soldier go down, but there are so many more out there that from a consumer point of view, it doesn’t make all that much difference.
