Polish authorities last week arrested the alleged owner of pirate website KickassTorrents, or KAT, 30-year-old Artem Vauln of Kharkiv, Ukraine.

The U.S. entertainment industry lost more than a billion dollars in profits due to KAT’s operations, according to a criminal complaint filed in a U.S. district court in Chicago.
