I do wonder

https://www.lumendatabase.org/notices/1315500

This looks to be the DMCA request for those 90 links. No doubt it was part of a dragnet, given they're listings of 3gp, aac, flv, mp3, mp4, and webm files, it's probably just some links found in some sort of scam page.



Good eye! Looks like that corresponds to this report on Google's page:

90 entries "removed" -- all of them "localhost"

oh, it sounds like an audiobook abouth mathematics, interesting


Not so much math. Life of Pi was a 2001 novel about the son of a zoo manager and his life after being shipwrecked with a Tiger.

It was made into a 2011 movie, that had a home release in 2012, which no doubt also had a anti-piracy campaign by the studio around the same time as the movie and home release.


i think it was a joke...


Oh, it may have been. Wouldn't the first time I hear "woosh".


I wonder, if I installed Google desktop on an old PC image and stored "life of pi audiobook CHAPTER 65 FULL[freemp3q.org].flv" in "htdocs/2/", would it still be found? Are these delistings just empty promises? :-)


There is only one way to find out. Don't leave us hanging
