    Leaseweb Forced To Shut Down More BitTorrent Sites

    Leaseweb Forced To Shut Down More BitTorrent Sites | TorrentFreak
    The Dutch anti-piracy group BREIN has forced LeaseWeb to take down several BitTorrent sites. Although the ISP is determined to fight for its customers in court, for now, it has no other option than to shut down BitTorrent sites when they’re ordered to.
    To give an indication of the magnitude of the issue, here’s a selection of some of the bigger BitTorrent sites hosted at LeaseWeb and there are many more.

    btjunkie.org, seedpeer.com, torrentleech.org, mybittorrent.com, btmon.com, sumotorrent.com, what.cd, waffles.fm, hdbits.org, bitenova.nl, torrentportal.com, monova.org and dozens of smaller BitTorrent sites.

    Whoa, that is a major blow to the pirate scene.
    Sure all of those sites will be back within a week, but still.

    Yeah, fairies wear boots and you gotta believe me.
    Yeah I saw it, I saw it, I tell you no lies.

    THAT info was pointless. Now they'll jump on those sites.
    Another reason to hate sites making The Scene more public than it already is.

    You're an idiot if you somehow think that everything you do isn't monitored/known about by the US government.
    For the love of all things nerdrage: it's saren, not Saren.
    All you have to do is copy and paste the moniker.

    It's like watching a pack of retarded baboons have sex. Yeah, they're screwing, but you know they're still going to manage to screw screwing up somehow.

    I don't have to worry about the US government here, idiot. I don't live in North America.

    And you shouldn't make it easier for those bitches to keep track of you.

    The community is so much better at what anyways.

    on-topic: Almost all the big sites had a contingency plan and are already back up, some didn't even go down.
