    U.S. Authorities Shut Down 73,000 Blogs

    After the U.S. Government took action against several sites connected to movie streaming recently, nerves are jangling over the possibility that this is just the beginning of a wider crackdown. Now it appears that a free blogging platform has been taken down by its hosting provider on orders from the U.S. authorities on grounds of ?a history of abuse?. More than 73,000 blogs are out of action as a result.

        From the article.............

        Bn.xx*********** was terminated by request of law enforcement officials, due to material hosted on the server.

        We are limited as to the details we can provide to you, but note that this was a critical matter and the only available option to us was to immediately deactivate the server.

        Please note that this was not a typical case, in which suspension and notification would be the norm. This was a critical matter brought to our attention by law enforcement officials. We had to immediately remove the server.

                You obviously haven't paid gideongallery $5,000 dollars plus 10% of your lifetime earnings for his "training" so you would understand it.

                    One deal at a time now. I don't want to rush the guy. I'm still waiting on him to actually email me from the first deal, if I rush that it might never happen.......

                            I'm sure he is just timeshifting some information off of the swarm and the cloud to finish off his presentation to you.

                              Bush did jack shit for you as far as this business is concerned.

                              Just remember that the reason people went broke from piracy is because
                              Bush sat on his fucking ass for 8 years and did nothing.

                              Don't get caught up in "buzz words" like socialism which I truly doubt that
                              you even understand.

                              Start looking at your fucking reality.

                              This administration is doing something to put money back in my fucking pocket and
                              assholes who call it "socialism" are fucking with my financial interest.

                                if they really want to make a dent they have to go after pay per download programs like hotfile and sharing matrix as most pirate blogs make their money through them.

                                    He has his email for you on a bit torrent. Backed up 10,000 times in a cloud. With a private tracker. In parody form. You have fair use to download, read, and monetize that email with the "new revenue stream"

                                      You created a Hollywood movie recently? You people are really fucking naive if you ever think they will go after adult sites. They are operating in conjunction with the MPAA, RIAA, etc who direct lobby and finance them. They don't give a fuck about your site, they care about their business. DMCA, ACTA, will continue to protect the tubes for a long time to come, unless you, or others personally sue them. All the Government is doing here is socializing the cost for the movie industry because they line their pockets. Buy a fucking a clue. Or download one for free lol

                                                    I won't be at all shocked to see changes made to the DMCA rules. Big companies are getting tired of websites hiding behind the loopholes in these rules and these companies have plenty of money and influence in Washington. It isn't going to happen overnight, but I won't be shocked to see a more strict version of DMCA released.

                                                      Really now? Lets see, they could use this very thing to take all the big tubes etc off line and claim how they have helped clean illegal porn off the net... hmmm sounds like a political winner to me.

                                                        Its called ACTA. And hate to tell you guys, read the drafts - but it isn't going to touch the tubes.

                                                          I'm not so worried about the tubes. I think the tubes will eventually take care of themselves by over-saturating the market and eventually stagnating their revenue. I want to see the torrent sites come down.

                                                          At the very least a tube site still makes you browse the site and look at ads in order to see the videos. With torrents you can download an entire member's area with just a few clicks.

                                                                                Most of them are busy downsizing and cutting costs just trying to survive.

                                                                                Not saying there aren't a handful with deep pockets. But even someone with deep pockets that has seen their revenue stream cut by 50 to 60% over the last 2 years isn't going to come out ready to fight with that money. No, they are going to hoard it and hope to ride things out.

                                                                                Can't blame 'em one bit. Also consider that once you go to court suing somebody...you just put yourself on the govt. radar screen. I personally wouldn't do it even if I had the money to hand in barrels full to fucking lawyers.

                                                                                    Most of them are busy downsizing and cutting costs just trying to survive.

                                                                                    Not saying there aren't a handful with deep pockets. But even someone with deep pockets that has seen their revenue stream cut by 50 to 60% over the last 2 years isn't going to come out ready to fight with that money. No, they are going to hoard it and hope to ride things out.

                                                                                    Can't blame 'em one bit. Also consider that once you go to court suing somebody...you just put yourself on the govt. radar screen. I personally wouldn't do it even if I had the money to hand in barrels full to fucking lawyers.

While they can't take them all down, they do have a lot more power than we do with the courts when it comes to this type of action. This is being taken like an act of terrorism on our nations income machine.

                                                                                                  At first it sounded more like counterfeiting was the main target - rather bad piracy and very understandable. But if they're going after people that abuse dmca then this could be a huge game changer. It's not just abusing sites, it's abusing hosts, people, backbones, all of it... it doesn't look like they are playing any games here - they just need more time really.

                                                                                                  If they do, it will give us more power in the Courts, this could vastly change things.
