In 2009, we reported how a leaked Radiohead track was probably leaked by the band itself. 15 years later, suddenly it's us accused of piracy.

I love how the graphic they used subtly informs the user of where they can go to get the track, but it’s literally text from the complaint so they’re in the clear.

Weighing in at over 9,600 URLs, hidden deep inside is one of our URLs which, according to the notice, should be disappeared by Google for the remainder of eternity, for violating copyright law.

That article contains no copyrighted material apart from our own, and doesn’t link to any infringing content either.

It’s not a link to the track, but their own reporting on the leak.

Look at the graphic my dude…

Ahh yes, the first one. I thought they were the same, and the second one was zoomed in for my old eyes.
