Politie inval in Denemarken update

A lanparty in the city Esbjerg (Connect #12) have been busted by the bailiff and an organization called AntiPiratGruppen (AntiPiracyGroup (APG)). APG gathered evidence at the party and thereafter closed it down as well as telling the participants that they could expect a letter, with charge for piracy, in their mailbox within the next few weeks. (...) A few very important points form this letter are: - organizers should keep lists of participants name, address and IP during the net. - organizers should keep track of all activity on the network to pick up illegal data. - organizers should demand that participants sign a contract saying that they will not bring to or copy illegal data at the net.
