They also build &quot;Bevismaskinen&quot;, which was a website that could generate incriminating evidence of any ip illegal downloading any file, by virtue of a screenshot of a torrent or limewire download.<p>Such screenshots (presumably taken of an actual download) were used by RIAA as evidence that someone was illegal downloading music and used in million dollar court cases.
