"A spokeswoman for ICE confirmed the seizures in the following statement. ICE office of Homeland Security Investigations executed court-ordered seizure warrants against a number of domain names. As this is an ongoing investigation, there are no additional details available at this time."
Question for any attorneys here:while it is illegal to sell counterfeit goods and it is illegal to purchase illegal goods, by what law is it illegal to answer a question about where counterfeit goods might be found? Is it illegal to advertize counterfeit goods? Particularly when the goods are advertized as being counterfeit? And since when can a judge simply issue a warrent to shut down a site without first having a trial?
I suggest that my fellow FReepers get the real e-mail address of at least two other FReepers so we can regroup when Dumb0's thought police come next for Free Republic.
Well, the ICE+DHS have just become the BATFE of the internet. Any freepers work for the afore-mentioned “agencies”? Should quit now before you have to writhe in embarrassment as your superiors wrap themselves in gov’t issue toilet paper to celebrate their “accomplishments”....
So much for innocent until proven guilty. Back to the old ways we left Europe for.
We should all send our real emails to Jim so he can notify all of us what is the next step!
If things weren’t scary a few months ago, then they certainly are now.
If this is their manner of seizing domains, it's about as lazy as it can get, probably requires little court intervention (since it is the registrars they're working with), and overall, pretty easy to get around (just direct your DNS to a name server who has the archived IP addresses.)
All in all, they're setting the stage for a dual level internet, where you use outlaw DNS servers to access the websites the government doesn't want you to see, then flop back to regular ones before you do your banking or other legal activity.

So why don’t they do this with WikiLeaks.com?
Scary thought that DU agrees with us on something, but they are questioning everything now & condeming the government for having too much control in our lives!!!!!
Meanwhile the real threats are getting their backs wet crossing the Rio Grande to come
here to steal our tax dollars and rape our people.
Typical leftist idiocy.
I’m confused? I’m not in favor of websites that encourage copyright infringement, but where does ICE get legal authority to seize these sites under existing law?
The Senate Judiciary Committee passed COICA Nov 18, but Sen Ron Wyden said he will block a Senate floor vote. There isn’t a similar bill in the house. COICA is not law only it’s only S.3804 passes out of committee. Plus COICA’s enforcement if passed would be DOJ as written; from text S.3804: Requires the AG to maintain a public listing of domain names that the Department of Justice (DOJ) determines are dedicated to infringing activities but for which the AG has not filed an action. Allows parties to petition the AG to remove such a domain name from the list and obtain judicial review of the final determination in a civil action
The article I read referred to COICA violation re these websites. COICA has not passed, its not law, and doesn’t appear to be likely to pass this year.
What law is ICE enforcing?
