We saw it coming.  BayTSP's claim that they could track BitTorrent file swapping, the recent MPAA threats targeted at Revenge of the Sith downloaders, and an overall increasing presence from the dark side have been a few clues.

I recently received a message from a hackaday reader informing me of 20th Century FOX takedown notices that are beginning to frequent, oh, hundreds of thousands of fans inboxes.  The letters are being sent courtesy of BayTSP.

I've attached a copy of the infringement notice as it provides some clues as to what sort of information is being tracked and how FOX, in particular, intends to pursue copyright infringement by fans of the Star Wars series.

Please continue reading to see the full notice.  Remember, we appreciate your efforts toward this common goal.
