- hendrix 15y agowhat about rapidshare/ifile?
- daintynews 15y agoI tried looking that up, as of typing, they have not yet issued any statement. So I think they're still good. However, it must be remembered that Rapidshare has had some issues as well too. Rapidshare has already been involved in numerous lawsuits in Germany and I believe have come out on top on the important ones.
- jbseek 15y agoSeems like they went after everyone. 2012 has not been so good for these types of sites.
- daintynews 15y agoI agree. I wonder if they'll start coming after sites like Youtube and Tumblr as well.
- dholowiski 15y agoHow about Hacker News? I see someone just posted a list of file sharing sites on it, that's got to be illegal somehow? http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3503788 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3503788
- daintynews 15y agoI sort of expected this reply, needless to say I'm not surprised. I compiled the list just so people will know, if they go after this thread, then they're sickening.
- meenriquez 15y agoand then there are some who are dying to have some of these sites shut down. http://www.businessinsider.com/these-sites-deserve-to-be-shut-down-by-sopa-or-a-bill-like-it-2012-1 http://www.businessinsider.com/these-sites-deserve-to-be-shu...
