Hello,
We have received a report of copyright-infringing materials being accessed by your Linode. We ask that you investigate this matter and update us via this ticket. If we have not heard from you within 96 hours, we will need to place network restrictions on your Linode in order to ensure no further infringing material is transmitted.
Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns.
