Government Shutdown

On August 8th, 2012, link-removed was shutdown by local Ukranian authorities belonging to an Anti-Cybercrime & Research Affairs unit located in the city capital of Kiev. Authorities did not seize any hardware, but copied and sealed data from server equipment, forcing link-removed's longtime service provider named ColoCall to permanently terminate services with link-removed.[27] [28]

link-removed Can’t Come Back Online, U.S. Tells Court | TorrentFreak

The U.S. Government has just submitted its objections to link-removed’s motion to temporarily dismiss the criminal indictment against the company. link-removed’s lawyers had argued that a dismissal would allow the cyberlocker to rehabilitate itself, but the U.S. believes this can’t happen as Dotcom has sworn that the old link-removed won’t return. According to Kim Dotcom the DoJ’s opposition is “full of frustration.” “Their bluff case is falling apart,” he says.

BBC News - link-removed sequel faces Gabon's suspension order setback

Efforts to create a follow-up file-sharing service to link-removed have been dealt a blow after Gabon blocked access to its intended web address.

The West African nation said it was worried the Me.ga site would host copyright infringing files.

Kim Dotcom - the tech entrepreneur behind the scheme - said the move was a result of a "bad faith witch hunt" being carried out by the US government.
