The US Department of Justice (DoJ), together with the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement Administration (ICE), continue to select domains in the framework of the fight against piracy and counterfeit. This time they carried out a sweep in the retail sector, which sells counterfeit goods (it is not known to bring joy to customers).
Yesterday, retail clothing stores (17nflshop.com and others), consumer electronics, computer components, pirated software stores, unlicensed disks, etc., lost their domains.
Exactly a year ago, during the first such operation, DoJ and ICE “closed” several dozen torrent trackers, search sites and streaming sites. Now, no free service has suffered, only shops. As usual, out of court.
The next round of confiscation was the most ambitious. In total,
more than 130 domains have been withdrawn from the owners. The operation was conducted a couple of days before Cyber ​​Monday, which traditionally begins the period of Christmas sales on the Internet.
