Did they turn off Rapidshare.com?
Many blogs and forums have reported on the network that on January 19, at 16.00 GTM, representatives of the fight against piracy appeared at the Berlin office and data center of Rapidshare AG's and confiscated hundreds of servers on the basis of the order. According to rumors, based on the data stored on the confiscated servers, hundreds of indictments will be filed against users who downloaded pirated products from Rapidshare.
On the appeal to the support of the company Rapidshare the answer was received that there are technical problems and soon they will be solved. But this answer does not fit in with the answer that correspondents of PCWelt magazine received who turned to Rapidshare lawyers, lawyers, as usual, did not confirm this information, although they said that at the moment they are working on the problem, without any specifics. There is also a version that there is a problem with DNS servers, and everything will soon return to normal.
New portion of rumors:
1. UseNeXT bought Rapidshare and now DNS is being translated.
2. GMA agreed with providers and they just block traffic from Rapidshare.com
