They're blocking under he copyright act and we all know almost everyone uses them for piracy.

Doesn't mean I like it, but can't exactly blame them for banning website mainly used for piracy. Piracy brings about many bad things.

confirm .. because everyone download .. the same as pirate dvd .. diff is dont have to buy dvd .. kemon la.. u dont have to ask why .. u know why ..

govt catching pirate dvd people oso just they didnt do it everyday .. its all political thing .. kemon laa ..

even govt block the site .. we still can use alternative ways ..

Less customer = good for me. Less idiots.
Anyway as for govt, sure I've seen myself one person quite high up having those files. But do they download them in the office? No. Just with private corporation, they have firewalls. Think they can go to all those websites in the first place? I may not know if  they do block or not, but torrents are certainly out of the picture.

With all that said, just because the EMPLOYEES are doing illegal shit, that gives you permission to do so?
Another idiotic comparison. How does Google have anything to do with piracy? They're just a search engine that index links automatically. Do they promote piracy? No. Heck if I recall there was a news Google was called to actually block some piracy shit. Not from it searches though. I think it was filtering for their new quick search or something.

The point is, Google is not related directly to piracy, those sites are. They are either the link provider or the file provider themselves. BIG difference there. File hoster not deliberately and as far as I know, they will take down few files that probably was reported. But having mainly used for piracy here in Malaysia doesn't exactly bode well with service providers.
You are in denial. Tell me the good usages of those file hoster other than getting illegal pirated products? I see one person exchanging files from colleagues but how many people actually work with that big size of files on a daily basis? Go to the premium account seller thread. Ask ANYONE in that thread what are they using it for. I'm sure you'll have a hard time finding one with legal usage.
