why?

some shocking news i got when i logged in to my favourite torrent site:

January 16
Lawyers from our primary ISP decided to pull our plug without any
advance notice, as of 14:45 PST. No doubt related to our lawsuit
brought by the MPAA, but we don't have more information at this time
until people responsible comes to work tomorrow. We will be back in
operation once we sort out this mess with our current ISP, or we get
new hardware ready at our new ISP.

Sit back and enjoy the rest of the internet in the mean time, while it
last. For your torrent searching needs, try Google for now by searching
for "SEARCH TERMS ext:torrent".

FYI, since this is a common topic, no, moving servers to Sweden or
Sealand isn't going to help. I have no intention of hiding our servers
(not that I have anything against Sweden, I love IKEA). BitTorrent was
created for distribution of any large media file, and we stand by that
ideal as a search engine and aggregator. Our current ISP is in the US.
Our new ISP is in Canada, where this temporary page is being served.
Depending on whether we get our servers back in the US, we will be back
in full operation sooner or later.

So after screwing around with our gigabit switch for a few hours, I've
given up on one particular task and I'm moving on, hopefully we'll have
our data back today, because if we do, we should be at least halfway
back up by friday. If we don't get our data back from our previous
provider, it may take a little longer to come back live again, but we are working on it, so be patient. :-)

We are moving house. If the tubes run smoothly, we expect to be back in full swing tomorrow.

but i do hope that they back online soon. note: multiply new interface is useful and user friendly. thanks multiply!! am listening to: emotion (maurice mix) - destiny child
