Security flaw: HADOPI suspends its connection with TM

Post by sniper3d »

Automatically translated from French.

"As a precaution the #hadopi has decided to suspend temporarily its interconnection with TMG"
That's the terse message posted by Éric Walter on his twitter account. Hadopi thus validates the information published by Reflets.info on the numerous security flaws that were found on at least one of the servers of the company responsible for flashing IPs. The measure does not mean the end of current processing. "We operate[d] on the "stock" already received" indicated the secretary general afterwards.

We thus arrive at a funny paradox: the authority responsible for cutting off the access of French internet users inaugurates its first access suspension with the company responsible for feeding it IP addresses!

The decision taken by HADOPI is exactly the one that was pushed forward by Bluetouff. In a phone interview a while ago, the latter confirmed having an appointment with Éric Walter. "I will ask Hadopi to shut everything down until it knows exactly what happened" the person told us an hour ago on the phone. "An alternative: either we let TMG play cowboys or we switch to control and protection of personal data. For me it's just essential"

According to information reported by the person, the files reveal many elements: "we see who, throughout the world, downloaded, from what time to what time, on what protocol. " Bluetouff continues: "the misdemeanor of gross negligence must be removed from the law. We must stop with this gross negligence except to apply it first to companies like TMG. They are the only ones who don't have the right to this type of error."
