The owner of a software piracy Web site has been sentenced to more than seven years in prison–the longest sentence ever handed down for software piracy. Nathan Peterson, 27, of Los Angeles, sold copyrighted software at a huge discount on his site, iBackups.net, prosecutors said. The FBI began investigating the site in 2003 and shut it down in February 2005. U.S. District Court Judge T.S. Ellis III on Friday ordered Peterson to pay restitution of more than $5.4 million. Peterson pleaded guilty in December to two counts of copyright infringement for illegally copying and selling more than $20 million in software.
