Hi I’m currently try to learn more about the history of piracy. I know that at some point I saved a very cool plain HTML website regarding that topic that was recommended here but I lost it :/ So now I hope you have cool sources. I’m only into the piracy since a couple of years so everything will be helpful.

There is a lot about the history of digital piracy in there. Its a Defcon talk by Jason Scott who calls himself an archivist and historian of technology. Really funny talk as well, generally recommended :)
Edit: Maybe you meant his project textfiles.com? There is a big section about piracy as well: http://textfiles.com/piracy/
Thaanks a lot. I will watch the talk. And also I didn’t know about textfiles.com yet. It looks very interesting. I don’t think it was the webiste that I remember but it looks very interesting nonetheless. I also found a book about the history of music piracy: Democracy of Sound: Music Piracy and the Remaking of American Copyright in the Twentieth Century
