Another two people arrested for running a filehost...
two german citizens arrested for running "Skyload", one of them worked at the ISP where it was hosted:
http://www.spiegel.de/netzwelt/web/0...816838,00.html (needs google translate) they provided files to kino.to - just like Megaupload about 10-15 people have been already arrested in regards to kino.to, some of them already sentenced |

Jeez, 10,000 films uploaded by the dude who worked at an ISP? Pretty sick.

First they came for the torrent sites,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a torrent site owner. Then they came for the file lockers, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a file locker owner. Then they came for the tube sites, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a tube site owner. Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak out for me. |

Well this is to the drug war like putting the leaders of the cartels in jail instead of arresting everyone who smokes a joint, so you can put everyone in jail if it's the subset who run the big operations, upload files by the millions and live large on the profits.

It's not to say that 'all' of these filehosts couldn't be shut down, however, it would appear that (like with most things online) the worst of the worst are the one's getting hammered.
Whether they are running around bragging about the mad loot, and posting pictures of it (i.e. IRS) or they are making headlines for their flippant remarks to DMCA (i.e. Pirate Bay), or they are hosting 10's of thousands of Hollywood movies, music, whatever. While many of the others are running scared, I am sure some of the small fries have little to fear in the grand scheme of things. Much like the smaller tube sites have little to fear. That being said, if you're a juggernaut and doing something that attracts a lot of attention, I'd be watching my back jack. :2 cents: |

I doubt a picture hosting site would ever have a bust because all it should take is someone asking for a pic to be removed. It's not like a billion dollar industry putting pressure on the doj or whatever. On that note, anyone got a good picture hosting script? I have a decent domain going to waste.
