It's time to take down the little people...
A U.S. Department of Homeland Security enforcement agent posed as a WWE representative last week and offered to buy various domain names from a Michigan man named Yonjo Quiroa. In reality, the agent was part of an operation to take down 16 websites owned by Quiroa, who is also known as Ronaldo Solano, that linked to other websites that hosted pirated telecasts.

I always wanted to be a secret agent man, that way I can slap on the cuffs and sing the secret agent man song in the perps ear...

It's not just the WWE either:
Quote: | Reuters reported today that Quiroa, 28, was making at least $13,000 from online merchants who advertised with him. His websites linked to other sites that hosted pirated telecasts from the NFL, NBA, NHL, WWE and TNA Impact Wrestling. |

I can't imagine agents planning a sting operation to take down some random dude who hosted sites "that linked to other websites that hosted pirated telecasts" - he linked to them but didn't host them? I bet he gets 20 years in jail and Hollywood big shots feel warm and fuzzy because of that. |
