SOCA: Police can monitor file download histories


Police officers have been tracking when downloaders of copyright-infringing files have deleted their download histories, according to the Serious Organised Crime Agency.

On Wednesday evening, SOCA hailed the success of an operation against music blog RnBXclusive, which provided links to illegal music downloads. The agency took down the site on Tuesday, posting in its place a warning to people using the site for downloads that they could face up to 10 years in jail.
