Another file sharing site get's shut down

[zell]

Well,not totally shut down,but now you can only upload and retrieve your own files.


Since it seems that I can't use the real name of it,I'll just say that it rhymes with Vile-cronic,and it was my number one site for getting tv shows and movies,now it's pretty much useless.

Ladies and Gentlemen,the internet is truly going to shit,and this is just the beginning.

Perhaps it's there own l4me attempt to be seen to combat p1racy?
They'll restrict uploading/downloading for a while, then when the dust settles, will go back to ''normal'' operations.

Yeah,maybe so.There are a lot of people that have money tied up with them,so they are the real people that are getting fucked.

Nice, I think as I read on many boards that owners of these sites are a little scared

Rumor on one BB has Interpol requesting the shut down of 10 sites and a long list of arrest warrants being requested.

This is no loss as far as I'm concerned. The way I see it, if you want movies, music, porn, etc., PAY FOR IT!!! Don't be a loser and steal it. The people who produce these forms of entertainment put forth their own time and effort to put it out there, so why should people be ripping them off and pirating all this stuff?

Don't be a loser. If you want it, do it the old fashioned way - earn your own money and them buy it.

Megupload was shut down for money laundering.

interesting.... so, they can't shut'em down for sharing, so they find other means to put them out of business....

Running scared is my guess

That's more accurate.They weren't shut down completely,it's just a storage site now.

 

[caring259]

But of course they have NO idea that they are holding stolen content on their servers!! Yeah right!!

correct

Looks like they did this to themselves until this bill blows over. They should be back and operating as usual soon.

If not then SOPA and Pipa did pass secretly.

OMG!! What a fantastic post this is. Rep, rep, rep!!!

Unfortunately you'll probably get ridiculed, for being a hard worker and actually PAYING for stuff, by the people who like to fuck over content owners & download it for free!!

Exactly, I think they've just proved their guilt!!

Bad men (the government) trying to stop other bad men (the uploaders) from doing bad things. Talk about hypocrisy.

SOPA/PIPA is just the beginning, ACTA is next. If this were 1910s America, I would advise you to stock up on as much liquor as you can and wait it out

Xbiz.com may have something on it. They are usually good at reporting stuff like this.

It's all true. But letting ppl pay for a site's membership and adding 4 hidden more on their CC is as vile; and there's plenty of that in porn, we all know it. Shit stinks no matter who dumps it, let's face it.
