I feel so bad for all the people who bought a 2 year subscription. Thank god i only had 1 day left on mine.

If they can do this without SOPA or PIPA . Imagine what they could with it. It would be the end of the internet as we know it D=.

Wikipedia was putted down temporarily, during the protest agaisnt SOPA.

Some of the employees of Megavideo/Megaupload got arrested for piracy and also the websites of Mega's are putted down for now. What's coming now or sooner is PIPA.

Prepare your angus, Mega lovers.

What happens to all those with subscriptions then? :/

[Russ]

The company will probably be obligated to pay them out if they're forced to close down for good, but since that's pending a 5 year long set of legal cases, the people with subscriptions might as well have lost their money.

Possible that it ends up the same as limewire where the company had to pay damages but still ended up making profits?

ANONYMOUS FIGHTS BACK

Online activists Anonymous struck back almost instantly, shutting down both the US Justice Department and Universal Music's websites in a response called 'Operation Megaupload'.

Soon after, websites for the Motion Picture Association of America, British record label representatives BMI and the US Copyright office were also targeted, as well as the sites belonging to the FBI and the White House. Tech website Gizmodo called it "easily the widest in scope and ferocity we've seen in some time".

“It was in retaliation for Megaupload, as was the concurrent attack on Justice.gov,” said Anonymous operative Barret Brown.

Mr Brown also said: “more is coming” and other members of Anonymous are pursuing a joint effort with others to “damage campaign raising abilities of remaining Democrats who support SOPA”.
