From another board:
Interesting.Fileserve removed it's affiliate page as of few minutes ago, because USA/FBI thinks that a legal part of their TOS is not enough to protect them, where users are responsible for their own content, and not filehost itself. Also, their thread disappeared from WJunction.
Who's next on FBI most wanted filehost list? Why all this, when SOPA/PIPA loose their support? All these could be done way back, if that is even legitimate, and by law. Smells fishy...
I've always thought that they also need to go after the affiliates of the file lockers.
The affiliates have too much incentive to pirate content and link to it from forums if they're getting paid for every membership sold to the file locker.
I'd be happy to see the feds start rolling over on the affiliates who are just as much a pirate as the site itself.
