Does it come preloaded with all the goodies MU had?

Speed-Racer4715d ago

Gotta wait and see till the launch date. Check out their FAQ.

Interesting...But do do you really want to trust a group like this? It could really comeback to bite you if you have to give out your information to them.

Kurylo3d4715d ago

Yea for real.. no way you would want to give these people your credit card for the premium account lol... Still though glad they are doing something about this nonsense though. The internet should remain free.

ThirstyforFanta4715d ago

I don't think they have a problem to get your credit card if they want

Downloaders out there... This year its going to be the end of your downloading career. Lets start to search for a new method to download or leech out the stuffs we are downloading right now. Looks like 2012 is really coming to an end of EVERYTHING !!!

MegaUpload - Closed.
VideoBB - Closed! would disappear soon.
FileServe - Closing does not sell premium.
Videoz - closed and locked in the countries affiliated with the USA.
FileJungle - Deleting files. Locked in the U.S..
UploadStation - Locked in the U.S..
FileSonic - the news is arbitrary (under FBI investigation).
Uploaded - Banned U.S. and the FBI went after the owners who are gone.
FilePost - Deleting all material (so will leave executables, pdfs, txts)
4shared - Deleting files with copyright and waits in line at the FBI.
MediaFire - Called to testify in the next 90 days and it will open doors pro FBI
Org torrent - could vanish with everything within 30 days "he is under criminal investigation"
Network Share mIRC - awaiting the decision of the case to continue or terminate
Torrente everything.
Koshiki - operating 100% Japan will not join the SOPA / PIPA
Shienko Box - 100% working china / korea will not join the SOPA / PIPA
ShareX BR - group UOL / BOL / iG say they will join the SOPA / PIPA

Japan, China and Korea have a say NO to the FBI and that even if laws are passed in the USA will not have any value within the sovereignty of their countries!

a copy pasta from fb, I knew this was bad shits really going down. -_- I support this.

Our digital freedom fate falls in the hands of

Russia
Sweden
china
and some other companies...

Thanks for that detailed posted. I completely forgot about some of those other sites... but I'm REALLY sad that a lot of them have buckled under!

:(

You can soon add Finland to that list.

"Customers of the Elisa and Saunalahti internet service providers can no longer use those internet connections to visit The Pirate Bay website. Helsinki District Court ordered the ISPs to block the Pirate Bay last October, but the block went into effect on Monday.

Elisa was the first company pursued because more than one third of its customers use the torrent site. The company has appealed the decision.

The website of Finland's Copyright Information and Anti-Piracy Centre was unavailable on Monday afternoon, possibly because of a denial of service attack by Finnish activists of the group Anonymous, protesting the block imposed on The Pirate Bay.

AnonFinland announced responsibility for the action in Twitter messages, referring to the court-ordered ban on access as "elisagate" and criticising it as censorship."

That block is pathetic though, use a proxy and you're done. But wow, I'm amazed that Anon actually attacked the Mafia behind this instead of the ISP, who only made a formal and weak block when they were forced to either do that, or pay a 100,000€ fine.

Anonymous warns users to stay away from Anonyupload

Technology Mob: "After the Megaupload incident last week there has been a lot of hysteria in the file locker world with many services partially or completely shutting down. Amidst all of the action a new file locker turned up; Anonyupload. But is it legit? Anonymous claims it's not."

lets see how it turns up. thats a lot of jail time for lying anyway and taking money. but annon has been known to do that.

KingPin4713d ago

i dont get it.

Anonymous is a group without a leader. <as they put it> anyone can join Anonymous, anyone can be Anonymous. <as they put it>

so now, which part of Anonymous claims this is not them
and which part says that Anonyupload is part of them?

im so lost. lol

tiffac0084713d ago

Ain't it ironic?

According to them they have no leader but when a part of the hive does their own thing, they denounce it. lol!

Clearly they have a leader or a council at least that leads the collective. Its too obvious by now.

Megaman_nerd4713d ago

they don't have a leader but they do have a youtube channel, a twitter account and a private chat where the passwords and other stuff are shared (and discussed) between the members. Only thing they have to do to know if the Anonyupload site is official or not is ask in the chat who created it and if no one responds then it's not official.

It's kind of funny but this is just like the Dollars in Durarara when you think about it. XD

BISHOP-BRASIL4712d ago

It may be that simple for people that are part of what they believe is the real Anonymous, but what about everyone else?

There's many alleged Anonymous youtube channels, many alleged twitter accounts and the chat is not open to anyone, so unless you are part of anonymous, any chat that's supposed to be an assert of anon is possible to be the real one.

As far as we know, even people who think they are part of Anonymous can as well be mistaken!

So KingPin is right, it's not something you can really verify... And that's why Anonymous is a joke, I have seen more organized revolution rising in a home economics classroom. LOL

Hozi4713d ago

Well, One could argue that Annonymous does have a leader but between you and I, there is always a leader...always a greater cause, nothing is as simple as it seems anymore.

johnnyvegas4713d ago

Even if it was real why would anyone want to give them their credit card info and such when they are known for hacking and such anyways? Sounds like you would just be asking for something bad to happen.
