With Fileserve an Filesonic you can only download your own files not from others anymore

Think they go down one by one ;(

Rapidshare have said they don't think it will affect them.

The owners of Megaupload were doing some other shit which is why they were targeted apparently.

Website called Megaupload.com which was one of the highest traffic sites in the world got shut down by the FBI for willful piracy.

The owners were arrested in New Zealand and face extradition on the US to face their courts.

As well as Megaupload.com there were various other sites under the Mega brand including MegaVideo and more importantly MegaPorn. The FBI are slowly taking away free online porn, you should be worried.
