    Might want to edit the name out. They are based entirely in HK, if I'm remembering correctly, so they are better off than MU was.

    The only problem with that site is the domain w*******.ORG could be taken down since that's owned by Verisign Inc. (US listed stock market company).

    But that is only the domain name. They can't do nothing about the servers afaik and that site would just change .ORG to something else that the US cannot control.

    So lame, I had a feeling this would happen because anyone with eyes and ears can tell most governments are slowly (actually quite quickly...) turning into nazis.

    So uncool, the middle and lower class get fucked again while the rich get richer.

    That doesn't mean diddly when you have about 500 servers stationed in Virgina, plus 1000s more elsewhere in the country.

    This is crazy how every file sharing site is going down. When the dust clears, we will be left to deal with cloud storage services backed by companies that support SOPA & PIPA.
