Feds Seize 130+ Domain Names in Mass Crackdown

[Searching_ _ _]

US authorities have initiated the largest round of domain name seizures yet as part of their continued crackdown on counterfeit and piracy-related websites. With just a few days to go until “Cyber Monday” more than 100 domain names have been taken over by the feds to protect the commercial interests of US companies. The seizures are disputable, as the SOPA bill which aims to specifically legitimize such actions is still pending in Congress.
The Department of Justice (DOJ) and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) have resumed “Operation In Our Sites”, the domain name seizing initiative designed to crack down on online piracy and counterfeiting.

Lol, I got 100 bucks that says people get up in arms about this without reading the damn list. Take a look at it, they're 99% scam sites, not even real counterfeits. If this is what the Feds want to worry about, they can have at it.

No joke. Ive never even heard of any of the sites in the list. This doesnt look to have anything to do with file sharing really.
