    I thought the reason, well reported reason, for Demonoid going down was DDoS?

    I think the Ukrainian authorities took it down legally since it was hosted there, in misguided retribution Anon members DDoSed Ukrainian government sites. Which could be considered illegal but they would have to find the Anons who did it to press charges.
