Submission + - Rapidshare shares uploader information 1

Gorgonzolanoid writes: TorrentFreak reports that the German Rapidshare has found something new to share: uploader info, and it's sharing it with "rights holders".
Borrowing from the article's own summary:

In Germany, the file-hosting service Rapidshare has handed over the personal details of alleged copyright infringers to several major record labels. The information is used to pursue legal action against the Rapidshare users and at least one alleged uploader saw his house raided.
