well if trackers are forced to change DNS its only a matter of time before they get attacked again.
plus if they have redirection setup.....

Depends what u are sending.
Bittorrent is perfectly legal, many companies use it to distribute large files. A transfer protocol isn't illegal, its what you are sending.

Makes me wonder how long the other sites will last. Maybe they are located overseas.

Re: bittorrent and edonkey sites shutdown
:/
Speaking to somebody about the 'legal fund'...never heard anything of the 'battle' so imo, they've run off with the money too :/
Well we've got the future, snarf-it + exeem if it ever kicks off now it is free from adware.
