MPAA accuses TorrentSpy of concealing evidence

By

A California judge gave TorrentSpy until Tuesday to appeal her decision to force the company to hand over visitor information. The movie studios may have discovered a new and powerful weapon in their war on copyright infringement and a computer server’s RAM can be used as evidence.

The courts have for the first time found that the electronic trail briefly left in a computer server’s RAM, or random access memory, by each visitor to a site is “stored information” and must be turned over as evidence during litigation, according to documents seen by CNET News.com.
