Looks like the FBI is starting to get serious about app piracy. Today, the Department of Justice released a statement outlining the seizure of three domains associated with the distribution of pirated Android apps. According to the release, FBI agents were able to download thousands of copies of copyrighted apps from three sites in particular: applanet.net, appbucket.net and snappzmarket.com. All three sites were distributing these apps without permission from the software developers, who would otherwise be paid for said apps.

When we think about security for our mobile devices, we’re usually protecting it from nefarious individuals. Well guess what? It apparently works both ways. In a story straight out of James Brown’s diary, the FBI is having a hard time busting a notorious San Diego pimp thanks to Android’s pattern lock feature.
