Generally speaking it is very hard to spot someone recording an audio stream in his or her car, but a drive-in near Pittsburgh<\/a> managed to track one down with help from Hollywood. <\/p>\n The man, Brian Ridley, allegedly recorded audio of the movies \u201cSex Tape,\u201d \u201cPlanes: Fire and Rescue,\u201d and \u201cThe Purge\u201d during the summer of 2014.<\/p>\n The 38-year-old man was caught after a tip from the MPAA who asked the theater owner to look out for his license plate, and call the local police if he did. <\/p>\n Following a careful investigation Ridley has recently been indicted (pdf<\/a>), with the Government describing him as part of a larger conspiracy to release pirated movies on the Internet.<\/p>\n From the indictment<\/strong> According to the indictment “the audio and video files would be sent over the Internet to a conspirator who would sync the audio and video files together,” after which, “the completed audio\/video copies would be placed on the Internet for others to download.”<\/p>\n The other members of the conspiracy are not known, but it is likely that they are part of an established release group. <\/p>\n While Ridley supposedly recorded audio for multiple movies, he is only charged with unauthorized copying of the Cameron Diaz movie “Sex Tape.”<\/p>\n “Sex Tape” was not yet released at the time the audio was allegedly recorded. However, a pirated copy eventually appeared online at the end of July, after Ridley was caught. <\/p>\n During the arrest the authorities seized three SanDisk \u201cSansa\u201d MP3 Recorders. These devices are typically connected to the drive-in’s audio feed, and presumably contained portions of the pirated audio. <\/p>\n According to court records Ridley has been released on bail and will be arraigned later this month. If found guilty, he faces a maximum prison sentence of three years for copyright infringement and five years for the conspiracy charge.<\/p>\n Source: TF<\/a>, for the latest info on copyright, file-sharing, torrent sites<\/a> and ANONYMOUS VPN services<\/a>.<\/p>\n One of the upsides of drive-in cinemas is that people are free to chat inside their cars and enjoy a movie privately.
