Thread: Rapidshare Gone

As of 19 January 2008 16:00 GMT, Rapidshare AG's servers were shutdown by anti-piracy authorities in Germany. More than hundreds of Rapidshare servers were seized from their offices in Berlin although no arrests were made. Sources said, authorities are contemplating pursuing legal action against users who distribute and download pirated copies of software and movies from these servers.

Ouch!

Let's face it they didn't have the best service out ther.

I don't see how it's gone, I still see it there. It's just in one country?

Yeah, it was only down for a few hours in the end. I think the horror story on Wikipedia was just a red herring.

Rapidshare is working fine but they were forcing few downtimes in back days..
