just wondered if this site could get closed down for hosting nzbs etc as i know with one of the torrent sites that the government ordered that they monitor all isp addresses accesing the site.

the government ordered that they monitor all isp addresses accesing the site.FST are doing that now. Have been for months.
Hope you don't have any illegal downloads on your PC - like films or music. If so, you'd better format your HD and then burn it with fire.
Actually you'd better just set fire to your whole computer. The government are bastards.

Why would organisations like the RIAA, MPAA and their equivalents in other countries want to shut down a site that is so useful in getting torrent invites to the latest private tracker?

Yeah, like that could ever happen. You'll be telling me next they could put viruses into files and then seed them using super computers that gave everyone a really fast download. Spreading the virus amongst everyone who accessed that file.
It's fantasy man, pure fantasy.

No. Conceivably the NZB section could get closed down, but not FST.

so these logs they keep what do they do, do they have to hand them over to governments etc. so just looking at this site then whats the worst that could happen?
should they not put a privacy statement to say they have to log things?

Why, everyone has to do it nowadays.

We just give them manker's IP every time.
So nobody needs to worry, except manker, and he just takes it out on the sheep.

Such a question reminds me of someone who visited my shop late one dark autumn afternoon, and asked me if I had a burglar alarm installed....

so what does happen then as like i said earlier there is nzb sections etc, if the government wanted to obviosuly they could close those sections down. but could they prosecute the individuals that download off of them, as if so don't think i would ever do it.

Thats a big step going from sites that share to sites that just discuss. Even making a statement as such means that too many people are accepting of what is going on when actually there should be absolutely no interference from any organization or govt.. Accept nothing and question all.
