#4626 — City of London PIPCU Sending "Notices Of Criminality" To Registrars

http://blog.easydns.org/2014/08/29/city-of-london-pipcu-sending-notices-of-criminality-to-registrars/

   As mentioned in our recent back-and-forth with the US FDA, we recently
   received the following Notice of Criminality from the City of London
   PIPCU:

   Classification: NOT PROTECTIVELY MARKED Dear Sir or Madam,

   Notice of Criminality

   [domain name redacted by easyDNS]

   EASYDNS TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

   Receipt of this email serves as notice that the aforementioned domain,
   managed by EASYDNS TECHNOLOGIES, INC. 28/03/2014 is being used to
   facilitate criminal activity, including offences under:

   Fraud Act 2006 Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988 Serious Crime Act
   2007

   We respectfully request that EASYDNS TECHNOLOGIES, INC. give
   consideration to your ongoing business relationship with the
   owners/purchasers of the domain to avoid any future accusations of
   knowingly facilitating the movement of criminal funds.

   Should you require any clarification please do not hesitate to make
   contact.

   Kind regards,

   PIPCU Anti-Piracy | Operations | Police Intellectual Property Crime Unit
   | PIPCUantipiracy@cityoflondon.police.uk | Address: City of London
   Police Economic Crime Directorate, 21 New Street, London, EC2M 4TP | ü
   www.cityoflondon.police.uk

   Once again, we are being asked to do (something, we're actually not sure
   what this time) based entirely on an allegation which has never been
   tested in a court of law and has been afforded absolutely zero "due
   process". (The domain in question is a search engine that hosts no
   content).

Search engines that provide links to copyright infringing sites can 
themselves be targeted for copyright infringement. Their protection is 
to accept, and act on where appropriate, take-down notices.

The above, of course, is not a take-down notice, and can be ignored.
