Seems they are all starting to restrict access. Will the domino effect take all the sharing sites down?

I just found that http://www.filesonic.com/ has started a new policy - "All sharing functionality on FileSonic is now disabled. Our service can only be used to upload and retrieve files that you have uploaded personally."

So, am I now responsible for what my clients upload to my FTP?

I heard MegaUpload went...down. Down to Chinatown.

Yeah it was a joint effort with New Zealand (Residence of CEO) Police and customs in China (Where it is based out of).

I am afraid this will spread like wildfire for upload services so beware

Matters not, it's like playing wack-a-mole. One popular site goes down, 3 more pop up. The law will never catch up to the technology. It's as futile as outlawing drugs. You would figure the government would learn from prohibition.

Wait, government and learn shouldn't ever be used in the same sentence.

The Law's been trailing behind the 'net developments; but they're starting to get aggressive...  :undecided:
