  By Ernesto from TorrentFreak
  
  The popular streaming platform Crunchyroll, which specializes in anime and manga content, appears to have a gaping security hole. As a result, the site's videos can be accessed through the pirate meta-search engine StreamCR, which ironically streams it directly from Crunchyroll's servers.

  By Ernesto from TorrentFreak
  
  A California District Court has denied ALS Scan's motion for summary judgment against hosting provider Steadfast. The latter is accused of contributory copyright infringement and failing to implement a repeat infringer policy as required by the DMCA.

  More than 1,000 lawsuits were filed against BitTorrent pirates in the US in 2017. While that number is significant, a flurry of lawsuits since January suggests that even more may be filed this year. Adult entertainment company Malibu Media is the most active litigant, as usual, but there's new competition on the horizon.

  English comedian Seann Walsh appeared on Conan this week with skit recalling his early piracy experiences using LimeWire. Amusingly accurate for those who remember the delights and pitfalls of early P2P sharing, Walsh's observations also underline how far we've come - and how easy it should've been for companies to beat piracy with professionalism.
