Filesonic Blocks Downloads

After the US FBI closing Megaupload website, which was use by millions to share files. Filesonic have taken precautionary step by blocking the download and restricting the download to the user who have uploaded it.

This step shows that there is a sense of fear among the websites after the Megaupload scene. FBI have uploaded an image which gets loaded when you type Megaupload.com on your browser, see the image below.





This was a big blow to all the uploading sites, which are used to share pirated softwares and Music, files and videos.
Majority of people think this is unfair but its the US government which decides what is right and the fate of Megaupload will be decided through a lawsuit.

All those who rely on backing up their data online should take precautionary measures for the data they have uploaded.
Everything has been swiped out from Megaupload all the premium accounts are gone and all files must have been seized under US copyright law.

Filesonic might have taken this step to protect their website, restriction has been implemented and now you can't share links to your files uploaded on filesonic server.
