Frickin hell, I was tempted to click the "Dislike" button for this one Sinno, then realised it is not your fault :)

this could be the end of the internet as we know it, the mere suspicion of infringement of copyright seems to be enough to close down a website. Surely this will just force file sharing and information sharing sites underground, how I don't know, but I am presuming something like the way paedophiles and others like them share their particular files.(ie. only open to those who stumble across them and by invite only.)

I know exactly what you mean Wheelo,there has always been another layer to the internet,access to it is restricted but not completely out of reach,it is not only for those dispicable people,there is a lot there that is outside of commercial search engines,and yes if this does force everybody underground god help the authorities because they will not be able to contain the onslaught from the talented hackers and groups who will attack from the dark with no announcments or tracability.Pandora's box was opened a long time ago and it is a bit late to be trying to nail the lid back on
