Its quite likely a lot of the "supposed" shut down sites are owned by BREIN themselves, its not at all hard to purchase a domain name and put up a page for a week or two them close it citing "copyright monopolist interference" or somesuch, it has the same effect on folks whether they hear yet another unknown torrent site has closed as one they actually visit, and with the millions being spend on propaganda and purchasing influence globally a few domain names are chump change.
Golden rule here folks, dont believe the hype. Some of us are old enough to remember the fake sites set up to entrap filesharers by media defender, whats to say they dont get two bites at the same cherry by pretending to close them down when they know ppl are getting too suspicious ?
