Gov’t Shuts Down 70 Websites, BitTorrent Search Engines

 

In technology news, the federal government has shut down more than 70 websites including several search engine sites that focus on files distributed through a technology pioneered by BitTorrent. The websites were shut down by the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, part of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. In addition, ICE shut down several music blogs and sites that sell pirated products including scarves and golfing gear.

Thoughts?

Also, how and why was I.C.E. the one to carry this out?
