Quote from the post:
the IP's of the sued user "rechner3" was from an IP Range from the lawyers (Rasch Legal).
The e-mail of the user "rechner3" was "pm.hh.04@gmail" it is possible that pm stands for the anti Piracy Company "ProMedia"
hh == "Hansestadt Hamburg".
and other indications that lead to the lawyer company and anti-piracy company.
The maximum value of discussion was 10k. If a lawsuit had been started, this value would have been cut down.
There was never a lawsuit to discuss the case and start a prove collection or discussion.
There is only a contract with rechner3 and the anti-piracy company, where rechner3 committed to not use RetroShare again.
rechner3 was never seen afterwards.
It looks like, this was a "forged" case to be present in the media with a high value sentence.
- runn1ng 13y agoThanks for this information, I didn't knew that and I admit, I took the original report at a face value. However, the general point still stands - RetroShare is routing random traffic through you, if you happen to be near the nodes.
- gasull 13y agoIsn't the data encrypted? How can even another friend see what's within the encrypted data? This makes it another reason to use Bitmessage instead.
