Here is a crazy idea. If you didn't pirate and illegally download in the first place, you wouldn't be upset about something like this. Just saying. :ugeek:

who said anything about upset? :p

There are a lot of reasons to be upset by this actually. The site was more than just a place to share pirated materials, and has been a major hosting site for a decent amount of time. There's more, but this really doesn't feel like the place to go off on a sociopolitical rant......

Not sure how entrenching the govt in another unwinnable war is really gonna help the US out in a time when things are still fiscally tight. Obviously Anonymous was upset enough to disrupt a few websites....if this starts a true cyber war.....this could cost a lot of people. If they can hijack sites and business hardware like they've done in the past, it's only a matter of time before they wipe something big....imagine if they attacked one of the major Credit Cards, or, perhaps, if they found a way to attack the NYSE? It's not unfathomable. Major commerce could come to a serious issue over the flex of judiciary muscle...

Well....much of a rant I guess...

I say good riddance.

No more freaking "You have watched 72 minutes of Megavideo today!" in the middle of my freaking Rise of the Planet of the Apes.

The thing I am most worried about are the Texture Packs. I may be wrong, but weren't most of them stored in megaupload? I guess that will take quite some time for them to be all reuploaded (hoping that they don't start going after Rapidshare and other uploaders).

And I don't really understand the reasoning behind it. They offered diskspace to the people and a way to remove it if it infringes copyright, did they not follow through with it or were they supposed to look over every single file?

Megaupload wasn't a piracy site, it may have had pirated materials on it but it wasn't a piracy site. It was the 13th largest site on the internet.

It's just the start folks...

I'm really enjoying all of this conflict over SOPA/piracy/antipiracy. I'm not sure if I'll like how this play ends, but until that time it's certainly an interesting drama

Homeland Security now watching Journalists, and by the wording anyone who blogs/tweets/etc etc
