Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

I remember they offered a lifetime account purchase, guess it meant the lifetime of the website itself, or maybe they could be sued. But how?

Nintendo is selling their IPs to Microsoft and this is true because:

Why are people saying that? I thought SOPA hasn't been passed yet?

SOPA has not been passed. This is just the power the US government already holds.

Which makes you wonder why they think they need more power...

It wasn't SOPA but as far as I understand, this wil be the result of other websites if SOPA and PIPQ were to be pass.

If anything, this should raise awareness that no website will be safe if this thing hits.

It's very sad to see it get shutdown. I used megaupload a lot.

This is crazy, it was one of the biggest file sharing websites ever, and I used it a lot. Try it yourself, not even google recognizes megaupload anymore. WoW, goodbye megaupload, you will be missed.

It recognizes it with me. Searched Megaupload on Google and its the first result right there.
