Sites aren't totally down but they are not working totally fine. They are rapidly deleting all the files and lots of these sites have some restrictions like being allowed to download only your files etc.

"We are working to be back full again!" LOL

Stupid ? not really. I would probably have done the same if i was the owner and had already earned millions. Why play with fire if you're already rich.

Time to start megaupload.cn if you want to make some cash like Kim Dotcom. Would probably need to live there aswell or they would probably extradite you.

These does absolutely nothing, private torrent sites are always going to be there, even the public ones like piratebay refuses to die for almost a decade now. There are still tons of filesharing website that will end up being used over the biggest ones that are now shutting down or going into hibernation, some of them probably have the same owners. Besides they are not the ones uploading the files in the first place, and they can always argue that they have been doing their best to delete files that were reported for infringement. Nothing will change, new website will rise if the old ones die.

great usage of taxpayers money. I would be glad the fbi are working to such futile actions instead of arresting real criminals that hurt ppl. But i'm delusional to think that taxpayers money should be used the right way. Might aswell use it to do the bidding of the mega corporation without regard for usefulness. after all taxpayers money is infinite right?

I can't believe ppl still can stfu about such wasteful spending. But it's only a matter of time. I hope i will be there to see the 21st century French Revolution. And i'll be there with my pitchfork asking the heads of them corrupt politicians.

The only real problem is with the random people who got sued for ridiculous amount of money because they downloaded songs from sharing sites.And this started happening years ago. I mean the only guarantee that tomorrow you won't be sued for downloading a movie/song software from torrents is because there are hundred of millions doing it and the chance of being you is so low. Suing uploading sites for hosting&sharing copyrighted material without permision is terrible for us who don't like to buy but it is legal. Authorities Monitoring your computer for downloading history is scary and outrageous .

I wonder what happens when all the people that are pirating now can't pirate any longer (as in, when almost everything has been shut down). They will have so much free time and a new enemy...
