The high-stakes lawsuit between adult content producers and tech giant Meta over the alleged downloads of copyright-infringing videos is heating up. In a new filing, Strike 3 claims that a Meta employee allegedly deleted over 9 terabytes of torrented files. Meta notes that this claim, which originates from an unrelated case, is mischaracterized and irrelevant. Regardless of the outcome of these and other ongoing discovery disputes, both parties aim for a trial in 2028.

Your casual 9 TB of porn.

To be fair, if I had the money, I would make my own porn NAS too. I would call it "the NASS" or something.

I’d go with ”Freak NASty”

I don't have "the money" and I have 22...

[–] Fuck_u_spez_@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago

22TB or 22 porn NASSes?

[–] sukhmel@programming.dev 2 points 2 days ago

That's some dedication

It wasn't 9TB of porn, the title is very misleading. Strike3's formal complaint is about 157 downloads over a period of 7 years.

[–] pulsewidth@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Damn, the title got me. Thanks for the correction.

[–] GreenShimada@lemmy.world 11 points 3 days ago (1 children)

9 TB of work porn.

Considering it was Meta, it's probably 90% CSAM anyway.

[–] mPony@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

You wouldn't download a 9

[–] Railcar8095@lemmy.world 11 points 3 days ago (1 children)

A quick wank, really

[–] BreadstickNinja@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Gotta be at the office.

Absolutely. Or, as they say, "sporadic" amounts.
