EliteTorrents Shut down by the FBI/Hackers?

EneMy@fSelf · 05-25-2005, 11:43 PM

The ultimate bittorent site ET www.elitetorrents.org has been shut down by the FBI so it seems but i found some discussions over the net that those are some lousy hackers from San Diego, anyways lets hope those are hackers so eventually it will go back up.

Any ET users here? :15:

no never used it...but I can tell you after looking at the site for two seconds, the FBI had nothing to do with that (obviously)

Edit: errr..maybe I was wrong...just read on the MPAA website that it was an official takedown I guess....but who cares

if you're gunna use torrents, stick with http://thepiratebay.com/ .....it can't be taken down

just another reason why anyone who downloads new movies, especially Star Wars III via Bit Torrent is an idiot

Star Wars III is the reason why Elite got closed

I was laughing at all the people flocking to download Star Wars on BT....you know how many authorities they had monitoring the Star Wars torrents....ever since BT became the most popular filesharing method, its gotten much more dangerous
