WARNING: MPAA MAY RECORD IPS TO SITES THEY HAVE BLOCKED, THEN MONITER THOSE IPS. IF YOU SHARE MOVIES, USE THESE LINKS WITH DISCRESION.

That being said, WHAT THE HELL?! He wasnt hosting any copyrighted movies on his machine, so how can they do this?

dotcommie.net
dotcommie.org
glitchinthe.net
team287.org

This is retarded, he didnt do anything wrong... MPAA sucks hardcore.

Opinions?

Those urls are all his sites. Nothing illegal on them, the MPAA is just retarded and decides to kill them.

Edit: Ok, i have no idea why this happened, but it did tonight. He is gonna call the MPAA tomorrow and also his hosting company to find out whats up. Im out for bed, questions will be answered eventually.

One of them was his personal site, dotcommie.org/net and was just his blog/rants/projects in python and such. glitchinthe.net was a random quote generator he was going to turn into something else eventually. team287.org is a high school robotics teams website.

MPAA is the RIAA of the movie industry, methinks. I think it stands for Motion Picture Ass. of America.

umm guess what, I doubt the MPAA really shut down his sites. MY guess, his host got hacked and those pages thrown up to "frame" the MPAA. Course I wuld wanna piss them off too.

The old PBchat page got hacked by some lamers too. Threw up some teddy bear or something. I can't remember.

Ok, he either:

A) Pulled a really good april fools joke on all his friends and like 50 other random people who frequent his sites.
B) Sorted it out with the MPAA/His hosting company.
C) Someone hacked his site with that and he fixed it.

My guess as of now is A. The timing was too close to april 1st to be a coincidence. B would take longer then a day and C is possible but not probable.

An example of a site that actually has been shut down is http://www.lokitorrent.com.

Oh yeah, thanks for that link hades, good stuff.
