Website Down

https://torrentprivacy.com/ appears to no longer be up. Maybe the swat team has raided their servers and shut them down... or maybe it was a sting to get everyone's credit card information to track them.
Anyhow im annoyed because i spent $10 for a month the day before it disappeared! Lucky i used a pre paid visa? =p

suicide rates

Suicide rates in Sweden are amongst the highest in the world, now that secure and private communications are a thing of the past in Sweden this just adds to list of reasons as to why you want to end it all if you had to live there!

Nice one Sweden...keep 'em comin'

From Russia With Love

It wouldn't affect Russia because I remember reading that when the Pirate bay servers were raided, it also shut down a Russian news service that was being hosted on Pirate bay servers.

P.S. Sorry for the cheesy James Bond title

intresting

So does this mean that they could monitor both incoming and outgoing coms? let hope nothing gets routed that way anymore because if thats the case then how likely is it that they might sell or loan off the data they have seen to other countries

Common sense

About time! The Pirates are way ahead of the rest. Take a look at your e-mail - most likely not encrypted. Or web sites like Amazon, with most traffic not encrypted, including your shopping list, products you view and search results.

Precendent? Really?

Excuse me but how is it a precedent? doesn't the UK and countless other countries do such snooping already?

Ooops

If the rest of the world banned Sweden from the internet the worst that can happen is that a big puzzle (or is it furniture?) reseler wont be able to call home from its abroad branches...
So, who cares?

Ban the chef...

How much will the ISP know

How will this work for the ISP? Can the ISP see that you go _to_ TPB (if you use their DNS server), but not more than that? How much can the ISP know about you?

If Sweden gets the boot, so does Finland. Could effect also Norway and Russia.

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
