The Empire Strikes Back

Hello web, Tis the Generic Guy here, bringing you the news!

The 13th most popular website on the Internet, Megaupload, has been shut down by The Empire  The Federal Government, due to piracy.  Yep, you read that right folks, The Government is shutting down websites, due to piracy.

Funny, a day after the largest protest in the Internet's history, one of the most popular file sharing websites is shut down due to "piracy".

Looks like the Government is enacting SOPA and PIPA, even without the bill passing. I though that this was the United States, not North Korea.

In completely unrelated news, RIAA.com, RIAA.org and MPAA.org have seem to suddenly and mysteriously go down, only a few hours after Megaupload's closing.  Fear not internet, my crack team of Elves are working tirelessly on bringing in the news.
