Telefónica bietet der Kundschaft bei der Buchung von O2-Free-Tarifen mehr Flexibilität, ohne dass diese etwas zusätzlich zahlen muss. (Telefónica, Mobilfunk) The ordeal of three people, who edited major movies down to 10 minutes and then uploaded those summaries to YouTube, is not over yet. After being arrested and found guilty in a criminal court last year, they now face action in the civil courts. A total of 13 companies including Toei, Kadokawa, Nikkatsu, and Fuji, say they are entitled to at least $3.9 million in copyright damages.

When YouTube first got off the ground in 2005, most of its users would’ve been oblivious to how closely copyright law would govern their online activities moving forward.
Seventeen years later, with billions of internet users now both consumers and creators of content, people are becoming more educated. Terms such as DMCA, copyright strike and fair use are now regular features in YouTube content creator communities but that hasn’t necessarily led to fewer infringements or happier rightsholders.
Media companies in Japan believe that the use of overwhelming force to send a deterrent message may go some way to solving these problems.
Up until last summer, so-called ‘Fast Movies’ didn’t seem like a key concern for the movie industry. These heavily edited copies of mainstream movies aim to summarize key plot lines via voice-over narration in about 10 minutes. While no replacement for the real thing, these edits accumulated millions of views and incurred the wrath of rightsholders, leading to the arrest of three people in Japan.
According to companies including Toho and Nikkatsu, these people infringed copyrights on a grand scale for monetary gain. After entering guilty pleas, last November all three received suspended prison sentences and were ordered to pay fines to the state. The deterrent messaging of that criminal case is now being underlined with a civil lawsuit.
Last week, 13 member companies of the Content Overseas Distribution Association (CODA) and Japan Video Software Association (JVA) filed a civil lawsuit at the Tokyo District Court. It targets the same three individuals convicted in last year’s criminal matter with the aim of recovering significant financial compensation for damages.
The plaintiffs – Asmik Ace, Kadokawa, Gaga, Shochiku, TBS Television, Toei, Toei Video, Toho, Nikkatsu, Nippon Television Network, Happinet Phantom Studio, Fuji Television, and WOWOW – claim infringement in 54 copyrighted works including ‘I Am a Hero’ and ‘Shin Godzilla’. Additional facts underlying the lawsuit were established during the earlier trial.
The defendants admitted running multiple YouTube channels leading to their ‘Fast Movies’ being viewed around 10 million times. The 13 plaintiffs in the civil lawsuit say that as a result, they collectively incurred damages of two billion yen, around $15.7 million.
For the purposes of their civil damages lawsuit, the plaintiffs have settled on a partial claim of ‘just’ 500 million yen ($3.9 million) against the three defendants collectively.
Clear indications of how seriously the anti-piracy groups and media companies are taking this action were on display after the lawsuit was filed last week.

Those present, including CODA director Takero Goto, highlighted that the three defendants committed criminal acts when they uploaded the movie edits and then profited from advertising revenue.
The civil action aims to underline those convictions with a strong message that rightsholders will not allow people to free-ride on creators’ content without facing significant financial consequences.
The overall message is one of deterrence coupled with the reaffirmation of copyright law, Goto said.

I've used the Logitech MX Master 3 as my primary productivity mouse since it came out in 2019. I've tested dozens of mice since, but none juggled a decent number of programmable buttons, advanced wireless capabilities, multi-device control, and long-term comfort as admirably as the MX Master 3. Today, Logitech released a revamped version, the MX Master 3S.
It follows in Master 3's footsteps of wireless mouse excellence but doesn't introduce enough improvements to warrant ditching my MX Master 3 and opening my wallet again.
As you might have guessed by the mild moniker modification, the 3S is slightly different from the 3. The new mouse has quieter left- and right-click buttons, and it supports higher sensitivity, so your cursor can move farther with less physical mouse movement—and that's it.

With an office-friendly appearance, tasteful backlighting, multi-PC wireless control, and simple software all backed by a reputable name, the Logitech MX Keys Mechanical ($170 MSRP) wireless keyboard was announced Tuesday, as well as the smaller MX Keys Mini ($150), are solid, serviceable entry points into mechanical keyboards.
If the new keyboards look familiar, it's because they take inspiration in appearance and features from the MX Keys ($120) and MX Keys Mini ($100) membrane wireless, respectively, but with satisfying, low-profile clicky, tactile, or linear mechanical switches. It's the kind of design that leads plenty of people to try a mechanical keyboard for the first time. But when comparing it to other wireless mechanical keyboards, you can find more features, including some that power users will miss, from rivals for less money.
I tend to be wary of low-profile mechanical keyboards. Some subpar options I've tried with shallow, mushy, linear low-profile switches and flat keycaps have scarred me a bit. They're popular among gamers, due to a perceived speed advantage, but you'd have to be quite competitive (I'm not) for that to make a huge difference.
