The FBI shuts down Megaupload

[cobito]

Official announcement: FBI — Justice Department Charges Leaders of Megaupload with Widespread Online Copyright Infringement

[packosoft]

the issue is that with the USA having control over domains, seizing megaupload.com, megavideo.com, mega*.com is fine for them, even if the company is based on the moon, that's what happens when you let one country legislate globally

In that case, the international geo-political scene is going to heat up in the coming days.

Something must be done against these imperialists, I say. Burning containers doesn't seem to work, but this can't continue like this. Between this and the global crisis, it's like crumbs that are piling up to make a big mess.

I still had a few months of premium left, but the truth is that it was downloading little to nothing, lately I only use torrents, although it is true that today at noon I downloaded a little movie that a colleague asked me for ;D and it downloaded as always.
We'll see how the issue evolves if it evolves

Let's see if at least the megamanager works, but it all depends on where everything is stored, of course.

First for the pain in the ass they just did to me, that I had a couple of premiums active and I live off megavideo :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

And second because I had heard the news about an hour ago or more and was preparing the post, when cunningly my internet stopped working as it sometimes does and until RIGHT NOW… (I think it's going for a separate branch because I'm already...:mad:)

Well, as I was saying, it's a pain in the ass and they've done me in big time.
If you're planning to demonstrate to burn things or something like that, let me know.

I'm afraid it won't work…

Something strange was going on at MU, the company was making a lot of money and if the FBI gets involved, something big must have happened.

P.D. Personally, I don't care, although it has to be said that they go and close it down just now that they had renovated it and it was working very well, with hardly any waiting or advertising… :sadgirl:

P.D.2. You didn't want SOPA, so here are two problems :risitas:

Anonymous responds to the FBI for the closure of MU by launching an attack against the website of the US Department of Justice

We have SOPA fooled...

And hold on because they are starting now.

Let's see what happens to this burning network.

Let's get serious. Where can I get information to be more "active"? I want reprimand software and to organize myself with the masses :lol:

The truth is that I had the sessions of the last few years uploaded there. Everything legal (non-profit and vinyl records that I have already paid for) but the *** FBI has my files hijacked :eoh:

Anyway, touch your nuts, Mega was my favorite, both for video and upload. No captcha, decent rates, up to 1GB per leg and good video quality. Real bastards, they already had their eyes on them and if someone has messed it up, go for it but, with respect to the people's information if they don't want cyber-ass.

My colleagues had complete music works saved there and a lot of material to use daily, so indeed the mess is huge...

PD: Good morning Obione :):risitas:

But do you really have things stored in the cloud without a copy on a PC?!

Pobres los que hayan comprado una cuenta vitalicia hace poco, hay mucha gente reclamando el dinero a los revendedores oficiales de algunos foros.

Espero que no perdieseis nada importante.
