It’s been just over 6 weeks since the CRIA allegedly shut down the Demonoid BitTorrent tracker. Details were scarce at the time, with lots of people simply claiming the site had some technical or server issues. Indeed, TorrentFreak came in for quite some criticism when we claimed the CRIA was involved, but when the site returned there were some ominous signs which seemed to support our claims.

Eventually, the Demonoid trackers reappeared, followed by the site itself but was forced to block Canadian visitors by the CRIA. However, despite blocking Canadians, it seems the CRIA hasn’t yet had enough of harassing Demonoid and its host.

According to a famous french advocate: Frederic Forster:
a mobile service provider should give instructions on how to unlock any phone after 6 months (required for the compensation of the lowered price of the phone when it’s sold from the provider).

When it comes to the “act of unlocking” itself, there are no laws that prohibits that, that is why you might see some stores on the streets which proudly claims they are unlocking mobile phones.

But… Apple (as a designer and constructor) can have rights on the structure of the phone itself, so unlocking it means changing the integrity of the phone.
