Method and system for preventing distribution of illegal content over the internet

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium that records a program including an instruction for executing:

• searching for, by a distribution prevention module, a hash value of specific content;
• extracting, by the distribution prevention module, a target peer that distributes the specific content on the basis of the hash value to generate an identification value of the target peer;
• establishing, by the distribution prevention module, an initial connection with the target peer;
• and
• transmitting, by the distribution prevention module, a query to the target peer,
• wherein the establishing, by the distribution prevention module, of the initial connection with the target peer includes:
• generating a virtual peer and an identification value of the virtual peer;
• and
• generating a message for the initial connection with the target peer using the identification value of the virtual peer.

A system for preventing illegal content from being distributed over the Internet, the system comprising:

• a tracker configured to store and manage a hash value of specific content and information about target peers that download or upload the specific content;
• and
• a distribution prevention module configured to search for the hash value of the specific content in the tracker and prevent the specific content from being distributed by the target peers on the basis of the hash value of the specific content,
• wherein the distribution prevention module extracts a target peer that distributes the specific content on the basis of the hash value of the specific content to generate an identification value of the target peer, generates a virtual peer and an identification value of the virtual peer, generates a message for the initial connection with the target peer using the identification value of the virtual peer, establishes an initial connection with the target peer using the identification value of the target peer, and transmits a query to the target peer to increase the number of queues of a job queue of the target peer so that distribution of the specific content is prevented.
