After many years of making a promise to fight piracy, Indonesia has joined the fight to take down The Pirate Bay.

Indonesia's Ministry of Communications has not only enlisted the notorious torrent site, but also IsoHunt.to and other sites reaching almost two dozen. Access to these sites will soon be blocked by Internet service providers (ISP).

Indonesia was initially accused of not doing anything to combat offline and online piracy, as reported in Torrent Freak.

In 2009, the country was placed under the priority watch list of the United States Trades Representative since it failed to support the fight against infringing intellectual property rights in the United States.

The Indonesian government announced in 2011 that it would start implementing their measures including instructing ISPs to block those frequented torrent sites.

After four years, Indonesia is finally firm in its stand against infringing copyrighted materials. The country has successfully blocked Imgur and Reddit as well, the Torrent Freak reported.

Ahmad M. Ramli, director general of Intellectual Property Rights in Indonesia, said that complaints will be forwarded to him and will be addressed within 24 hours. It was also mentioned that the priority will be to protect pirated movies.

Meanwhile, in related news, it was reported that hackers have uploaded on The Pirate Bay a large file containing personal details of Ashley Madison accountholders.

According to Yibada, the file was measured to be nine gigabytes and was uploaded by a user carrying the name impactteam.

As of Aug. 20, the date of the report, there were 5,227 seeders and 7,860 leechers of the file.

It is the latest downloaded file but many people said that the uploaded file was a fake. It remains to be seen if the file does really contain fake details or the actual personal data from the Ashley Madison leak.

Ashley Madison has yet to confirm the authenticity of the uploaded files.
