$1.65 trillion dollars. Wow.

Nice

They would never try this if there werent the matter of Russia gaining entry into the WTO at stake. They would pretty much know that a stiff middle finger in the air would tremendously hurt their legitimacy over here. As it is, Russia really has no choice but to at least pressure the site to close.

edit: whoops, link fixed

If not close, force them to restrict downloads to Russian IP addresses and/or restrict payment to Russian card accounts.

American companies put up a massive stink when copyright suits based on foreign law are brought against them. This site is following Russian law.

I know, let's let every entity in India offended by scenes of people kissing onscreen sue American movie companies.

Let's let every trademark in Kzakistan apply to North Dakota.

Hell, why not.

The RIAA will have to figure out it has to adapt it operational gameplan. I guess just not today.
