FileSonic stops file sharing after the arrests of the owners of Megaupload.com

After the events of last week, with the closure of Megaupload.com and arrest 4 strains it's logical that there would be mobilization by similar services file-sharing.

One of them, FileSonic, disabled already operate file-sharing and allows only the cloud storage and access files from one who brings.


Features reports on the homepage:




"All sharing functionality on FileSonic is now disabled. Our service can only be used to upload and retrieve files that you have uploaded personally "


The strange thing is that FileSonic says nothing on the official blog or account maintained on Twitter, so it is probably a drastic move in fear of the U.S. Department of Justice and similar annexes.






According to TorrentFreak, the FileSonic is one of the top 10 services, file-sharing, with approximately 250 million pageviews / month and Piracy cooperate officially with the Vobile for analysis of content (whether or not it really nobody knows).


Moreover, the website Uploaded.to has blocked users from accessing the U.S. (unheard of), citing the home page that the service is not available in their country, without explaining why.
