I have no idea why people used that thing anyway...you had to click like 14 fucking things to get anything downloaded. Then you had a ton of pop ups
and malware issues to deal with because you never could tell what link was the right link.
Mediafire for the win for pirated tunes.

never had a problem with megaupload, but mediafire is best.

You don't need to look much past my Facebook for the past 24 hours to see what I've said about this lol.
No trial, no conviction, yet a site that thousands of people and businesses use for legitimate services is offline. Will they get access to their
data? Privacy, IP etc... who's taking steps to ensure their data is secure and private?
Banks dont get shutdown for having accounts of criminals, yet an entire site is pulled for the few criminals on it? Gun makers aren't shutdown
because their products are used in crime either. This is some fucked up standards of law being applied.
Not to mention the US GAO says it's near impossible to quantify the losses perceived from online piracy, yet DoJ and FBI can shutdown a site at the
absurd claim it's cost the industry over $500m?
And here's a good spin, highlighting the false claims thrown around by the media industry - http://maddox.xmission.com/
This fucking thing riled me up so much on Friday. The US can have the www, time to start a new internet.
