MPAA Sues MovieTube For Copyright Infringement, 29 Sites Shut Down

2015/07/28

Yesterday, the MPAA sued MovieTube, owners of some two-dozen-plus streaming sites, alleging copyright infringement, according to a story from The Hollywood Reporter. MPAA members 20th Century Fox, Columbia Pictures, Disney, Universal, and Warner Bros. jointly filed a lawsuit in New York against a number of MovieTube-owned streaming sites. The group is asserting both copyright and trademark claims, and the complaint is filed against both John and Jane Does, and XYZ Corporations, as the MPAA is uncertain of exactly whom they are suing. In total, the MPAA lawsuit names 29 websites.


One day after the MPAA sued them, all 29 websites named in the complaint have been shut down, according to a report from Heavy.com.
