Share-Online service offline since 16 October 2019 hours
Investigations by GVU lead to concerted action against largest hosters of illegal media content in Germany - Focus on Public Prosecutor's Office and Police search residential and business premises in Germany, France and the Netherlands - GVU accompanied entire proceedings
Berlin/Cologne, 17.10.2019 It has been clear since yesterday that even filehosters are not unassailable. On Wednesday, 16 October 2019 at around 2 p.m., the Internet offering of Share-Online.biz, the largest file hosting service aimed at the German-speaking market, was shut down by cyber crimes specialists from the Cologne public prosecutor's office and the Aachen police headquarters. This unprecedented procedure was initiated by GVU, whose employees filed a criminal complaint against the operators of the service as early as 2017 and have been continuously supporting the authorities ever since. Where previously all criminal and civil law approaches of various actors seemed to run nowhere, GVU was now able to achieve a groundbreaking success for its members and the creative industries as a whole.
In Germany, residential and business premises were searched in several federal states, and further raids took place in France and a Dutch computer centre. Extensive evidence was secured. The allegation against three defendants aged 40, 48 and 54 is that they have assisted the commercial exploitation of copyrighted works in a large number of cases. At Share-Online.biz, millions of files were hosted on several hundred servers and between six and ten million visitors visited the site every month. In 2017, a single service provider commissioned by GVU sent more than eight million deletion requests to the operators of Share-online.biz as part of the GVU takedown project to have unlicensed content removed. The service appeared to be cooperative, but all content was available again shortly after the supposed deletion. The GVU was able to make the findings and data gained from the takedown project directly available to the lead public prosecutor's office in order to substantiate the accusation of aiding and abetting commercial copyright infringement. In addition, the state investigators were proactively supported by GVU staff through specific analyses and precisely documented test downloads.

Concerns Over Bill to Force Telecom Providers to Share Data With Authorities
Telecom providers are concerned about a bill that will temporarily force them to collect more data about people's travel behavior and share that anonymously with the Dutch authorities. The idea is that the data will be shared with public health institute RIVM to help track and fight the spread of the coronavirus, but telecom providers are worried that it will eventually also end up with intelligence and investigative services, sources from inside the telecom industry told NOS.

Dutch ISPs Unblock Pirate Bay Proxies, Because They Can
Dutch ISPs Ziggo and XS4ALL have unblocked dozens of Pirate Bay proxies and mirrors. While the companies must block the torrent site itself, the latest court order supersedes the injunction which covered the site's proxies. Anti-piracy group BREIN characterizes the ISPs move as "shenanigans" and "downright silly."
The Pirate Bay is blocked in dozens of countries around the world. In most cases, ISPs are ordered to take action after a relatively short court proceeding.
In the Netherlands, however, the process took more than a decade, and it’s still not completely over yet.

🇵🇸 Dutch rights groups take government to court over arms to Israel | Middle East Eye –
Human rights groups are challenging the Dutch government in court, arguing it is complicit in alleged Israeli violations of international law in Gaza by supplying F-35 fighter jet parts.
The suit, brought by Oxfam Novib, PAX and The Rights Forum, comes after a Dutch newspaper reported that the government allowed a delivery of the components despite foreign ministry lawyers warning that Israel was committing serious violations of humanitarian law.
The components, made by the #US-based #LockheedMartin, are stored at a warehouse in the #Netherlands and then shipped to #Israel and other countries.
"The government allowed itself to be blackmailed by Israel and the US - at the expense of Palestinian lives," The Rights Forum has said.
