Стварно, како го затвориле ако седиштето им е во Кина... ?
Тоа значи дека сеа јас ако отворам warez форум овде во Македонија за некој ден на врата треба да очекувам некој wanna be енглез од циа ?
Не знам и мене ми е чудно, како може федерални агенти на една држава да вршат полициски акции во друга?! Има ли некоја информација дали физички биле ФБИ во Хонг-Конг, дали е уапсен некој и во која држава и чии државјани се уапсените.

- Feds storm, shut down popular file-sharing site Megaupload
- Anonymous says it is in the process of staging its "largest attack ever" -- more than 5,000 loosely associated hackers taking down websites belonging to government and recording industry organizations in response to Thursday's shutdown of the file-sharing site Megaupload.com.
- The Department of Justice unsealed an indictment against Megaupload.com on Thursday, arresting its founder -- Kim Dotcom, formerly known as Kim Schmitz -- in New Zealand and charging him and at least five other company executives with violating privacy laws.
In response, the hacker collective known as Anonymous announced a collaborative attack against government and recording industry websites, successfully taking down the site of the Department of Justice -- which coordinated the case against Megaupload -- and the Recording Industry Association of America. As of 4 p.m. Pacific time, Justice.gov and RIAA.com were failing to load, along with other stated targets such as UniversalMusic.com and the Utah Chiefs of Police Association homepage.
In a statement, the Department of Justice acknowledged that it's website faced service problems and said it was approaching the issue as if it was the result of an intentional disruption.
"The Department of Justice web server hosting justice.gov is currently experiencing a significant increase in activity, resulting in a degradation in service," the agency said in a statement. "The Department is working to ensure the website is available while we investigate the origins of this activity, which is being treated as a malicious act until we can fully identify the root cause of the disruption."
The MPAA posted a statement Thursday confirming that the group's site had been hacked, along with the Department of Justice's website.
"Our website and many others, including the Department of Justice, were attacked today and the hacker group Anonymous is taking responsibility for the attacks," the statement read.
"The motion picture and television industry has always been a strong supporter of free speech," the statement added. "We strongly condemn any attempts to silence any groups or individuals."
Anonymous said on a Twitter account it has used regularly -- @YourAnonNews -- that the assault is "The Largest Attack Ever by Anonymous - 5,635 People Confirmed Using #LOIC to Bring Down Sites!" In other messages, the group said it was aiming to take down more sites throughout the night.
The group claimed on Twitter to have taken down other sites that were still managing to load at times, though in a slow fashion and with mixed results as to the content, including the home pages of the FBI, the Motion Picture Association of America and music publishing company BMI.
Megaupload is considered a "cyberlocker," in which users can upload and transfer files that are too large to send by email. Such sites can have perfectly legitimate uses. But the Motion Picture Association of America, which has campaigned for a crackdown on piracy, estimated that the vast majority of content being shared on Megaupload was in violation of copyright laws.
The site allowed users to download TV shows, films, music, games and other content for free, but made money by charging subscriptions to people wanting faster download speeds or extra content.
Megaupload is based in Hong Kong, but some of the alleged pirated content was hosted on leased servers in Ashburn, Va., which gave federal authorities jurisdiction, the indictment said.
Before Megaupload was taken down, it posted a statement saying allegations that it facilitated massive breaches of copyright laws were "grotesquely overblown."
"The fact is that the vast majority of Mega's Internet traffic is legitimate, and we are here to stay. If the content industry would like to take advantage of our popularity, we are happy to enter into a dialogue. We have some good ideas. Please get in touch," the statement said.
The Megaupload.com arrests occurred one day after websites including Wikipedia, Google (GOOG) and Craigslist participated in a large-scale online protest against two congressional proposals intended to thwart online piracy.
а од кај знаат они кој се акаунтите кои постираат таму уплоади оти како шо знам јас на ваквите сајтови кога споделуваат фајловите не пише од кој се уплоадираниОва уствари нема никаква врска со СОПА и ПИПА колку што разбрав. Наводно дечките го користеле вебсајтот за перење пари и заработувале преку нелегална, пиратска содржина. Одлуката да се затвори била донесена на петти овој месец, а мегааплоуд бил под истрага доста долго време. Уште пред СОПА да се појави...
Претходно им било наредено да ги затворат акаунтите на луѓето што постирале пиратерии, ама овие не ги послушале.
Од тоа што прочитав овде, прекршиле еден куп авторски права и дебело профитирале. Наводно, заработиле 175 милиони долари минатата година.
Како и да е, додека постојат пајретбеј и замунда, немам гајле...![]()
Според ФБИ, мегааплоуд им плаќале на луѓе да постираат пиратски содржини со цел да заработат повеќе. Колку е тоа вистина, сам процени...а од кај знаат они кој се акаунтите кои постираат таму уплоади оти како шо знам јас на ваквите сајтови кога споделуваат фајловите не пише од кој се уплоадирани
така да они вајда му велеле дека ги бришат акаунтите така да не вервам да е до тоа....
Конечно некој истомисленикКомедија ми се овие Anonymous.
Им ги де-досирале серверите едно 5-6 саата и после викаат како тоа се одмаздиле.
Патем, MegaUpload си го заслужија тоа што си го добија, се курчеа со тужби ова-она, епа го изедоа дебело.
Исто така падна и www.justice.gov
Sooo... this is how the III World War startsШтета за MU, ќе влијае и тоа како на варез сцената... лани исто се започна лошо годината т.е. The Pirate Bay беше казнет.
