Hungarian Police Seize 58 Computer Servers in Anti-Online-Piracy Raid
The Hungarian police seized 58 computer servers in an anti-online-piracy operation conducted in several server hotels and an IT college in Budapest on June 16 and 18, 2010. The raids were carried out following complaints by the Hungarian Copyright Alliance and the local film industry, the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) reported.
The police reported that 500 terabytes of infringing content had been found on the servers, including data allegedly used to illegally distribute thousands of copyrighted works via local and international torrent sites.
