I'm not sure who this will affect (other than me and Gripster) but I think it's worth creating this thread to show how the RIAA is really coming down on file sharers. Recently, torrent-swapping site, Demonoid.com was shut down. If you were to go to the site now you would receive this message:



This is another case of the FBI or the RIAA cracking down on the internet. For every step backwards we must take two steps forwards! Or some shit like that. You know. Revolution. And stuff.

Old news

Phail


Ps- No your not the only genius who knows about the such a big secret of demonoid

When sites keep getting shut down, more will be made, It's like a never ending chain of torrent sites. I use mininova, isohunt, etc, and a lot of underground sites in which (I hope) won't get shut down any time soon. Why now all of a sudden are they cracking down? GIMME BACK MAH INTERNETZ!

When I saw that I almost shit a brick. My favorite site.

Yep. Maor sites have been getting the axe since the loss of Supernova

But file sharing sites are like a parasite, the RIAA might crack down here and there, but in the long run, they're fucked.

I think there's a possibility they might come back. Not sure, I could be wrong. But one can hope.

On a side note, the copyright laws are different in sweden I believe, or some such place like that, and a lot of major torrent and other such 'illegal' material sites branch from there.

It's been up and down a lot recently. The past few days I've just been been getting a 404 error.

PS - No shit. But since I managed to only find one other person on Smosh who had a Demonoid password on here it's kinda hard to gauge the amount of Demonoid members here.

Guise. wise the bap

the Usenet network will always be the best way to steal shit from the internet.

You torrent/limewire/p2p users are pathethic!

I fail to know what usenet is. I guess I'm not an uber 1337 haxxor.

Yeah, sorry that i use torrents. I guess my hax fail nd i cnt pwn the feds like yourz brutal usenet either.

Heard of it but did not have an invitation so... doesn't concerns me

The Demonoid IRC channel says the tracker is still up and the site will be back soon.

Demoniod is a lot better at searching for torrents than Piratebay imo.

Agree'd.

Now I'm gonna have to wait even longer (usually Demonoid takes a day) to get the Season 3 Finale of IASIP. Damnation.

Demonoid is supposed to be back in the near future

Then if you knew only one person who had it, did you seriously expect half of these smosh fan 13 year olds to even know what the fuck it is? Whatever!

Because even they can understand how the RIAA is coming down harshly on everybody who gets in their way. Hopefully, they can appreciate the importance of Demonoid being shut down in the wake of other closings such as TV-Links, and Oink.

Demonoid sucks noodles compared to what site i use.



BAM.

new websites are being made everyday and so are file sharing websites. besides other country's dont have these pirating laws
