Take-Two threatens Justin.tv GTA IV streamer
April 25th, 2008 @ 06:43
As many of you will be aware, a guy was streaming himself playing a downloaded copy of GTA IV on Justin.tv yesterday, but no longer. According to this post, Take-Two got in touch with said chap saying his IP had been logged and it was time to stop, before he got bombzorred.
Having scored over 450 000 views over the last two days, he finally received a message from Take 2 warning him that they have his IP and will contact his ISP to secure his real identity just a few moments ago. He was told to cease his broadcast or they will be resorting to legal means assuring him that “any legal action will not end amicably”.
You can read the final moments win the chat room attached to the video here.

Serves him right. How stupid can you get… streaming footage of a leaked game that has yet to hit store shelves.
