    ah, I've been finding the real IP for hours lol. Had a feeling that it is DNS problem. The guy that found it, would you mind telling us how to find the address ?

    sister's site is back after that hosts file trick and I just opened it and feel relief. That's it. It's not like I have anything to download. :rofl:

    @Bulgroz may have had the IP of az squirreled away somewhere or could have looked it up via nslookup, whois, etc, BEFORE the replications erased the records. Trying a nslookup or a ping -a (without the hosts file pointer) produces nothing but "no host found" or "non-existant domain" at this time due to the fact there is a hold on the domain registration.

    Heard about this big offensive against piracy yesterday and today Audioz is off.

    Gemini:
    Crackdown on illegal software downloads: 1,300 websites blocked in 30. May 2024?

    Yes, it is true that a large number of websites offering illegal software downloads were blocked in May 2024. According to https://www.bsi.bund.de/, there were 1,300 websites that were blocked by the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) and the Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA).
    The action was part of a large-scale crackdown on illegal software piracy in Germany. The aim was to combat the distribution of illegally copied software and protect users from malware and other security risks.
    The blocked websites offered a variety of illegal software for download, including operating systems, application software, and games. In many cases, the downloads offered were infected with malware that could harm users' computers.
    The websites were blocked on the basis of the German Criminal Code (StGB § 108a). The law allows authorities to block websites that offer illegal content.
    The action against illegal software downloads is an important step in improving the security of users on the Internet. However, it is important to note that there are still many ways to find illegal software. Users should therefore always be careful when downloading software from the Internet and only use reputable sources.
    Additional information:
    * BSI: Press release on the blocking of websites with illegal software downloads [invalid URL removed]
    * BKA: Press release on the blocking of websites with illegal software downloads [invalid URL removed]
    Is there anything else I can help you with?


    • German authorities blocked websites offering illegal software downloads to protect users from malware and improve internet security.

    • The action was taken under the German Criminal Code (StGB § 108a), which allows authorities to block websites with illegal content.

    • Users should exercise caution when downloading software from the internet and only use reputable sources to avoid potential harm.

    My goodness. They're acting like Anonymous. Pretty cool if they weren't on the wrong side of the Force.

    It's the ages old true story of the have's ($$ hoarders) fucking the have-not's (the peons) in the ass. It's all motivated by the capitalist have's controlling the law-making AND the enforcement as well. The one finally excellent thing about it all is - they will never stop it.

    Pura pinche propaganda. Those guys are really talented doing this kind of marketing job but in the end we all know that just represent Agency's interests and to give people the sense of protection, like "good guys vs bad guys, better be with us". They are good at telling those kind of stories.

    They are using cloudflare and probably been blocked. Solution is to NOT use cloudflare. They can find the hosting anyway since cloudflare is collaborating with law enforcements. There are some hosting companies who do not care about DMCA. Solution is to host on one of these.

    It was only a matter of time, til this happens.

    So many warez sites have been brought down during the last years.

    Steindick and all the others funky music software companies surely weren´t amused, might loosing big money with their overprized software when az offered it for free.

    There are other websites which are still online that someone might expect to find down also; but aren't. Just an observation, but I guess it wouldn't be the first time for that either.
