According to CNET a company named Revision3 that legitimately distributes its video programming via peer-to-peer systems is shut down for three days after being inundated with traffic. The likely cause was a company paid by the major movie studios and record labels to fight piracy. According to Ira Rothken "It's ironic for a company that is supposed to be helping major Hollywood organizations in getting legal compliance, that they would use techniques that at least optically appear to be in violation of the law."
