Judge orders Meta to disclose the list of employees who authorized BitTorrent downloads of pirated ebooks

US Judge Thomas Hixson ordered Meta to provide the command history of the download servers and to list all personnel involved in approving the downloading of pirated ebook libraries via BitTorrent. Meta previously said it could not identify the specific decision-makers, that such decisions were usually team consensus, and that downloading torrents was a technical decision by the executing employees. The book publishers and authors suing Meta want to find out who ordered the downloading of pirated ebooks from Anna's Archive and LibGen for training AI models.
