Hope he can restore content people lost when the service shut down. Wondering how he's gonna run a free service now... might have to sell his mansion :P Pretty sure it won't be free of course.

Yea I doubt that stuff is still on the server.I lost alot of stuff when that site went down.
Legit stuff not porn and stuff ofcourse that was missed however :)

Yeah, I had a lifetime account. :(

I bought it for $20 but I had a lifetime account. :'(

I was so sad when the idiotic FBI shut down MU. I lost access to a lot of my backup documents and audios. Good thing I had them saved up on a hard drive and I recovered them before I formatted it.

then they will shut it all down again, pointless

Speed-Racer4309d ago (Edited 4309d ago )

Depends where they host though...what domains they use, where their head offices are located on paper, etc.

Kurylo3d4309d ago (Edited 4309d ago )

Somehow i doubt it will be that easy this time. The first time was a blind sided thing out of the public eye. They broke the laws, now im wondering if they even got the balls to do it again without any proof.

Doesnt really matter though, they made their point already anyway. They scared the other file hosting companies out of the US.. least some of them.

If the US government fail at taking them down, and so far they've failed in every way, then what chances has anyone got.

They come back and they are back for good.

It will end up being shut down again. It will take time, but the issue is media attention. Pirate Bay suddenly hit the media in the UK and then all the ISPs block it. Thats the only time they react. Kim isn't helping himself.

GanjaMan4309d ago

not all ISPs have blocked it only 'major' ones and btw its so easy to get on piratebay and its ment to be blocked for me. this link is exactly like piratebay infact it is piratebay, www.tpb.pirateparty.org.uk u open this up and tell me this isnt piratebay lol

PCGamingNoobs4309d ago

Appeals Court Says It's Perfectly Fine For The DOJ To Steal Kim Dotcom's Money Before Any Trial

Last year, there was a series of very troubling rulings by a district court in a case related to the criminal prosecution of Kim Dotcom. This wasn't, technically, part of the actual criminal case against him, but rather a separate effort by the government to steal his money. We've been covering the ridiculous process of civil asset forfeiture for a while, and it's really problematic in general. In Dotcom's case, it's something of a farce.
