German P2P Users Feel Safe Despite Lawsuits

Based on traffic figures for P2P networks popular in Germany, the German people aren't scared of recent enforcement efforts.

Barely a month after 3,500 file-sharing network users were placed under investigation by the public prosecutor's office in Cologne, the figures for P2P network use are back to where they were. This is a result of an analysis undertaken by the Leipzig-based company ipoque GmbH.


This seems to be the story all over the world, the RIAA / MPAA / IFPI / CIRA / et al lawsuits against individual P2P users are having little effect on filesharing. In fact, many sources sight growing numbers even in the face of mounting lawsuits.
