I’ve never known so many shutdowns inside 2 weeks as the last two have been. Even websites pirating manga were shut down. What happened? What’s with this massive legal wave of shutdowns, and why now?

    We’ve lost some big ones this year alone, hadn’t we? I recall the early half of the year, that we lost some huge names or names that just shut down. Uloz flipped, still around but not what it once was. There was a lot of big names just gone all in this year alone.

    But I see all of this as multi-pronged.

    Aside from what everyone else has said. I will add that there could be people slipping into pirate ranks as a shill for these corps, gathering all that they can, slipping out to report.

    There also could be loud-mouthed pirates, ruining it for everyone because they’re loud-mouths, gotta spread the shit all the way around. That gets the attention of the corps that just hover over and count the days at that point.
