So exactly how big was this filelocker service anyhow?
Alexa trend for PayPal.com
![]() The decline suspiciously coincides with the filelocker shutdowns. I'm guessing some filelockers probably had more transactions then even eBay. Was PayPal built on a piracy platform? 44% decline in traffic is huge.

If this is true, this would be a massive scandal. Can anyone corroborate this?

If true answers the question of why they turned a blind eye.

This looks interesting.
I hope there is a connection, PayPal are just pure greedy.

The reason for the decline is simple, they have replaced international paypal addresses with things like paypal-business.com.au instead of paypal.com/au
Really, does anyone think that File Lockers, despite the number I'm shutting down, could be responsible for such a Paypal drop ? Also web checkouts are not tracked by Alexa as I understand it. |
