Sam Kuonen, 24, pleaded guilty to two counts of felony conspiracy to commit criminal copyright infringement and "criminal copyright infringement in violation of the Family Entertainment Copyright Act." Mr. Kuonen could possibly spend five years in prison and/or a fine of $250,000.
Mr. Kuonen’s guilty plea was the fifth conviction connected with Operation D-Elite and the operation is not yet finished.
Mr. Kuonen was one of the main uploaders on Elite Torrents and his conviction, along with the four before his (admins and other uploaders) are a warning from the government that torrents arent as safe as you imagined.
