Undercover Guy Reveals Popular Piracy Site Was a Trap All Along
2013.10.25
The guy who ran a pirate site called Uploader Talk created it as a trap. After a year of stealing uploader's info from deep cover, he reveals it was all a ploy to get our info.
Known as WDJ, he got his start as a user and then a moderator and then super-moderator at popular pirate cove WJunction before leaving to start Uploader Talk, a hangout for people who make money on piracy.
Uploader Talk garnered some 1,000 registered users, mostly professional pirates. And then it announced a surprising re-focus yesterday.
Here's the announcement:
Hello Reader,
UT is now closed.
For how long: This is a permanent closure
Why?:
UT was set up for a number of reasons. But mostly to be a sounding board, proof of concept (Hey Hawk a Year and it could have stayed online much longer), and to collect data.
That's right the Biggest Swerve ever I, WDF, work for the Anti Piracy people! I have collected information on many of you. I collected info on file hosts, web hosts, websites.
How is it I was able to protect some sites and people? Because I was working for the other side!
How is it I knew so many things? Well think about it, I suckered shitloads of you.
I built a history, got the trust of some very important people in the warez scene collecting information and data all the time.
Look I became a WJ mod then smod rather quickly I became a influential figure there.
So what happens now? I am already working with different ID, a new persona, and still collecting data. Yo u never know who I will be or where I will turn up
I work for Nuke Piracy now, this is very bad for anyone profiting from piracy.
