Megaupload Shutdown


* World’s largest file-sharing site MEGAUPLOAD has been banned by the FBI (Federal Bureau Of In vestigation) with respect to the order issued by a U.S District Court.

*  “All websites like Megaupload and Filesonic are located out of India and such sites rampantly promote online piracy. In fact, steps such as the John Doe order are the only step that we copyright owners are left with,” said Reliance spokesman Sanjay Tandon.
* Commenting on the censorship, Megaupload’s Kim Dotcom told TorrentFreak that the effects of these blocks are usually resolved in a week, but while they stand they give the company a chance to do some analysis.
* With 150 million registered users and about 50 million daily hits, Megaupload.com is among the world's biggest file-sharing websites. Anonymous launched a massive cyber attack against the US government and anti-piracy websites in response to the shutdown of Megaupload.
* Hackers Anonymous blocked the United States government websites after Megaupload was shut down by the police for a copyright theft.
