Ninjavideo

sorry if this shit was posted here but ninjavideo is down, this msg is on their facebook page. pretty shitty for social sponges like me who get their tv over the internet thru netflix/hulu/ninjavid

the government seized tvshack.com too which is where i usually get my tv dose. Soon enough, tvshack.cc up and running within 48 hours

yeah i wonder how quick these sites will be back up and how much taxpayer capital was invested to take them offline temporarily.

the first thought has me optimistic, the second... very unhappy.

filespump was seized as well.

so there really wasn't a post about it here? i'm befuddled.

JOYREX IS PART OF THE CONSPIRACY

This makes me sad. I want my NinjaVideo back!

More recently in 2008, Kentucky courts seized the domain names for 141 online gambling sites (all for companies based in other countries including Malta and Costa Rica). The Kentucky court action threatened to disrupt global traffic to PokerStars, Full Tilt, Absolute Poker and many others. As of March of this year the case is still winding its way through Kentucky appellate and supreme court (the case has been reversed then upheld and is currently resolving issues of standing).

So the US government can order ICANN to hand them domain names that belong to someone in another country? Or are the domains registered in the US?

What if I register a .com in some lawless country and host from a server located in that country? That should stop them right?

I'm finishing The Wire at the moment, the highest quality series of the past I've saved for last, downloading from megaupload and hotfile links posted on scene release sites. Pretty soon its gonna be a huge monstrosity of a bitch to get copyrighted material. Just watch, net neutrality will be gone. ISPs will have full control on order to stop this stuff.

The end of the golden age in piracy has begun

I'm glad I have fully exploited it before it was too late

all those that think nah there will always be a way, your half right but pretty soon the process to get pirated shit is gonna be harder to accomplish than sucking my moms dick.

they only have jurisdiction within the US. of course that doesn't limit the influence. but hey, when have americans ever muscled their way through foreign countries?

yeh America is only limited to its borders its not like this country example of a world government has ever had its hands fists in the bungholes of nearly every corner of this planet
