2008 is when Pro IP Act passed, which now allows ICE to take down all those domains. The spike in donations is probably related to that.

- pwg 15y ago> 2008 is when Pro IP Act passed, which now allows ICE to take down all those domains. And note the pattern. They got the DMCA under the Clinton admin. in order to "fight piracy". But it was not enough. So again in 2008 they get the Pro IP act, in order to "fight piracy". But that was not enough. Now they are back with SOPA/PIPA, in order to "fight piracy". And in 2 years, that won't be enough either and they will be back with something else even worse than SOPA/PIPA today, in order to "fight piracy".
