I don't think this has been posted before, but if it has, I apologize

torrents themselves are not illegal. If i owned that site, I would have told the RIAA/MPAA to go f*** themselves.

I'm not really surprised. I had a bad feeling about their intents when they started asking for thousands of dollars in donations.

Heh. I used to visit lokitorrent, and then a couple weeks ago I saw that the site had been "busted". Kinda freaked me out. Guess that was just a bunch of bs.

No they really got shutdown. You can read about it here:

gives instructions of how to find a filed MPAA vs Lokitorrent case on Pacer
BUT then they asked for help legally, and got thousands of dollars to pay for the fine...then kept getting money so logically...he keeps it
That's what people get for donating to a torrent site that is one of literally hundreds/thousands
