Film Company Targets TorrentFreak Article over ‘Mandalorian Piracy’
Found on Torrentfreak on Saturday, 01 May 2021
Google was asked to remove a TorrentFreak article from its search results this week. The article in question reported that "The Mandalorian" was the most pirated TV show of 2020. Interestingly, it's not Disney who takes offense with our reporting, but GFM Films.
Apparently, the news that The Mandalorian is widely pirated – which was repeated by dozens of other publications – is seen as copyright infringement? Needless to say, we wholeheartedly disagree. This is not the way.
Despite all the takedown notices, everybody knows how to get what they want. It's a useless uphill battle that's doomed to fail.
