The complaint further reveals that the feds posed as an advertiser, which revealed a bank account associated with the site.

It also shows that Apple handed over personal details of Vaulin after the investigator cross-referenced an IP-address used for an iTunes transaction with an IP-address that was used to login to KAT’s Facebook account.

“Records provided by Apple showed that [email protected] conducted an iTunes transaction using IP Address 109.86.226.203 on or about July 31, 2015. The same IP Address was used on the same day to login into the KAT Facebook,” the complaint reads.

Take notes, peeps.

They can't, it's the Polish police that arrested him. Obviously because of a U.S. request. The U.S. is seeking to extradite the guy.

Yeah just read that he had a extradite warrant against him. Just read the seizure legal document. He received 30 million dollars in just 7 month for advertising. I am definitely in the wrong business

Censorship is pushing hard. I feel that black hat & vanilla will have to support one another for freedom of speech to survive with the pressure of the PC EU focussed on control of all digital & analog "freedom" of expression.

No joke. Reading the tea leaves.

You: but that's my TV, take it out of your car.

Him: but people are paying to keep your TV in my car, and that crowd of people there is paying me to watch it, and all the other TV's.

You: I've given you the paperwork, you know it's my TV, give it back

Him: I'll look into it, come back tommorow.

The next day

You: I'm back, give me back my TV in the back seat of your car.

Him: That's not my car.

You: yes it is, you just changed the license plates.

Him: Prove that it's my car.

You: This paper proves this is your car.

Him: How did you get my registration & and how did you know where I was? I moved the car last night & changed the plates.

You: I'm not telling you how I found you but I always will and if you don't want me to tell those other TV owners about your car you should give me my TV back.

Him: Here's your TV back

The next day

You: That TV in the back belongs to my friend ...
