    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.

    is he joking or is this true, do they have to monitor it now? so what would happen to people that download these nzbs off the site if they are tracking people that visit it???

    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?
