"US and international law enforcement authorities on Wednesday conducted a series of raids against Web site operators suspected of distributing more than $50 million worth of pirated music, movies and software, a move the U.S. Justice Department described as the largest-ever crackdown on online piracy," reports the Washington Post.
"The Justice Department coordinated more than 120 searches in 10 countries and 27 US states. Operation Fastlink targeted 'warez' sites operated by sophisticated electronic pirates who specialize in securing and disseminating illegal copies of movies, music and computer programs."
