[acolyte_to_jippity]

megaupload got taken down by the feds just now. it's not just a domain siezure either, as i can't get to it via IP either.

7 employees have been arrested. megavideo is also down

Bleh so the USA has to take down the site for the whole world because. What is next Media fire? or all the torrent sites. can't they just block it for the usa and leave the rest of us alone.

That really sucks, but if you change your name to Kim Dotcom, I have no sympaty for you. Funny that they waited until after the blackout to serve a 2 week old warrant.

i agree with meltdown...

With all due respect, but your precious USA government is fucking the world up.
First the SOPA, then PIPA, and now they are closing down WORLDWIDE sites, located OUTSIDE of USA, and arresting the owners OUTSIDE OF THE USA, only because, IN THE USA, they claim that they support copy right infrigement...

Why enforce the USA rules on the entire world? for example where i come from, there are no rules against pirated shit. and yet there, now, they cant get anything from megavideo... If USA wants to be gay about , keep it in the goddamn fucking closet...

I tell them to GO FUCK THEMSELVES...

Instead of working on aiding the poor, or curing diseases or fund for medecine or research that could help the world when we're out of gaz or facing global warming, instead, they use their fucking resources to prevent a 10 year old kid from watching cartoon without buying it from the shops...

I am not american, and to be honest, i consider it a disgrace to be called that if the people are letting the government pass such rulings and acts... (not meaning disrespect to any of u guys, but to those idiots that are causing this shit...) At least if i was american , i would be joining the cause to stop all this BS that they hide behind while making money, instead of just sitting there, wanking off and pretending the government ppl know whats best for "us"...

Also, if the SOPA or shit like this DOES end up passing, then I am for one NEVER buying a movie or track or anything from hollywood or RIAA anyway... and i would urge people to follow the same and therefore proving to these money hogging assholes that all they did was vain, and they only stole freedom, with no profit.

Not to mention all those people with life time subs, I'm glad I never consider that but wow some people must be pissed of badly now. And the Hackers anonymous already broke down the government website.

Cyber, if its a disgrace to be an American citizen whom as the people made history yesterday with over 10 million signatures on peitions and over 162 million wiki visits resulting in the first succsesful protest start in American history. How disgracful are the soldiers who fight for these disgrasful citizens? Think before you type please.


I also have a question for the rest of you in regards to sopa pipa and the mega upload issue.

How do you lose somthing that you do not own, have not borrowed, and do not physically have?

[Steamer]

resulting in the first succsesful protest start in American history.

Wrong.

How do you lose somthing that you do not own, have not borrowed, and do not physically have?

Tough question. Kind of like asking someone how they believe in a god they have not seen, touched, or physically heard.

Physically, in the from of atoms, the data was there and an item, so your question is void.
