Anonymous: We will avenge Demonoid

news article released on: 11 August, 2012

Hacktivist group Anonymous has claimed it will wreak havoc on the Ukranian government for their part in taking down popular torrent tracker Demonoid. Reads the AnonPR post: "Last week, our generous green friend, the Demonoid, was met with a state sponsored Distributed Denial of Service attack...These illegal actions were then followed up with a raid by Ukraine authorities. In retaliation ...

Burn the f***ers to the ground! I used to download from Demonoid and buy what I liked. 30 second samples are not the same as listening to an album...the way the artist intended. Demonoid was great for finding music that no other torrent site had...If I can't listen to it I sure as hell won't be buying it you RIAA f***heads. Anonymous has my full support.

If they can by some miracle bring Demonoid back it would definitely make up for those Lulzsec tools.

Asking a pirate torrent site for permission to use their logo is more than a little ironic.

Frankly, LOIC (Low Orbit Ion Cannon, a DDoS tool popular with Anonymous) doesn't take any "skills" to use. While there certainly are skilled hackers who work with Anonymous, the vast majority of members are merely the lowest grade of "script-kiddie", running prepackaged software and congratulating themselves on their "1337 h4x0r 5k1llz" - lol...

Conversely, while I certainly don't elevate them to some kind of pedestal, I feel that groups like Anonymous are necessary, if not inevitable, in the current, rather authoritarian digital age. Governments and large corporations have zero concern about the rights of their citizens vs. overly-broad copyright laws and draconian punishments (longer than for murder, in many cases!) for various digital infringements. The US and the UK are prime examples of this kind of BS.

My point? Content providers have pretty much made their own bed, and now they get to sleep in it.

Yes I'm quite sure DDoSing Mexican police sites and dropping Brazilian sites will make demonoid come back for sure.

Freebie shit doesn't pay for server costs and Anomymous doesn't want to pay for anything so it'll never happen.

I'm sure this will come back up like how they brought back that file site the US chopped down 6 months ago, that kim dotcom owned.
#20 13 Aug 2012 @ 7:54
xtago, this has already happened before to Demonoid, when their servers were in Canada, so there IS reason to believe Demonoid may come back

not only that Bozo, but how many times has TPB come back from the dead?

He will come back I know but unfortunately this time I dought he will be able to use his demon logo. Will have to go more private
like axxo but it wont be the same. Yes go for it anonymous please.
#23 13 Aug 2012 @ 21:26
If you all have noticed the domains are for sale but not the data.
#24 14 Aug 2012 @ 11:56
I hope they come back.
#25 14 Aug 2012 @ 13:56
What I find most amusing about the sale of the domain names, is that anyone would think that Demonoid users would give a rat's ass about any other company/organization that tried to use the name. Some people are complete idiots about metrics - lol...
