A few days ago we reported that the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America) κατέθεσε δύο αγωγές εναντίων διαχειριστών του P Time and YTS (formerly known as YIFY).
The first lawsuit filed by MPAA was against three Popcorn Time programmers living in Canada, while the second lawsuit was followed a few days later by the YTS.to domain operator, which so far remains anonymous. What we know is that he lives in New Zealand.
The MPAA with the two lawsuits asks the court for precautionary measures to prevent the two services from opening again.
According to information from the NZ Herald, a New Zealand news agency, the MPAA lawsuit against the YTS manager "seems to have already expired, as both parties have reached an out-of-court settlement."
Details of the deal have not yet been made public, but the NZ Herald says the owner of YTS "lives in a house on the outskirts of Auckland", New Zealand's largest city (not the capital).
Common sense says that if the anonymous Admin of YTS doesn't want to go to jail or pay huge fines, rather "he should give confidential information about the internal structure and operation of the YIFY group."
Since the release YIFY movie group has several members in many countries (Russia and Eastern Europe), many suspect that the YTS administrator will try to buy his freedom by giving his former partners.
Meanwhile, TorrentFreak reports that MPAA is now the legal owner of domain yts.to.
