For security reasons, we keep JavaScript disabled even when browsing our own websites (which are ran on remote servers). If it was locally developed, it wouldn't be a problem to have JavaScript enabled.

Also, as a side effect, it's considerably faster browsing the internet without JavaScript enabled.

In a future release, I highly recommend keeping the simplicity by allowing people to browse the basic stats page without requiring JavaScript. Other than that, it is a great project.

Just a slight correction, he lived in Hong Kong when he founded Megaupload and moved to New Zealand later on. Pure speculation but I imagine he moved to Hong Kong to avoid German law after his past conviction there for insider trading.

Is there a guide on how to do this but in a completely isolated way? So that DNS leaks, accessing local networks, etc aren't possible, making it into a router condom for a non-trusted computer?

I'm sorry but that's just incorrect. I'm not going to provide my background info but I can say for sure that Russia is a very bad place to host now. Pre-2012 it was good but now they enforce copyright laws and pro-actively censor the internet.

For domain extensions, always go directly to the nic site if they sell directly (tonic.to, nic.is, nic.cr, vunic.vu etc) as then you don't have to rely on multiple companies - eg, if you remember, ThePirateBay had a 'hydra' of domain extensions but used the exact same registrar rather than using the direct nics so they all were suspended. As for hosting, you need both a safe country and a safe datacenter. Switzerland (Private Layer) hosts many warez sites. Looking at the hosting providers of popular torrent/warez/file host sites is always the best way to find a reliable datacenter.

libgen/sci-hub are ebooks, What.CD was for music. Russia has been clamping down on music piracy significantly.

Using Spreedy to act as a 'white' proxy to their API would make it an even harder job for Stripe to detect the fraudsters. What would be your solution to the problem?

Telegram is not based in Russia. Pavel Durov fled the country and is currently operating Telegram from Germany.

Did you read the previous articles? Allegedly Paul Le Roux created TrueCrypt (because a domain name is linked to him or something like that). Even if he didn't create TrueCrypt, he definitely created the pre-forked version of it (which he was open about).

It's got me curious as to whether Satoshi was really motivated by being anti-bailout or whether he created it for his own operations just as Paul allegedly created TrueCrypt for his.

Hola doesn't route users through other users, it uses proxy servers. Users are turned into exit nodes for Luminati.io customers (servers/bots) only.

If the alternative DNS system allowed us to upgrade our current domain names to the decentralized protocol, then you're not fighting for everyone to start using new TLDs which would be a huge hurdle. Ideally, the upgrade should be for free but use proof of burn on newly created domain names.

Great job, I like that you're planning on making it as simple as installing a browser extension.

For organic traffic pirate sites, the biggest blow was Google's algorithm change. For websites which used a freemium model, the biggest blow was PayPal, Visa and Mastercard banning file sharing websites from using them. Todays announcement was merely a nail in the coffin for those sites.

On topic of LN, I feel that is the best approach from a privacy perspective. It's unnecessary to make every single transaction in the foreseeable future get appended to the blockchain and it sounds Orwellian.

Are you the owner of Ezfile/Filecloud by any chance? If you are, I'm actually quite curious to discuss payment processors with you. Last I checked, you're using Amazon gift cards and Bitcoin. Have you had any luck getting access to credit card processors? Also, what fee per transaction would you consider to acceptable from a CC processor for your category of website (with the ability to let users pay by subscription)?

On note of the save files, I really hope we gain the ability to port PS3 gamesaves to PS4 and also the ability to use save files from the internet. It's madness that Sony doesn't let us do this.

Also, I am somewhat curious as to the API Sony uses for PayPal payments, as it lets you pay within the PS4's GUI. Does anyone know whether the PayPal Payflow API allow Sony to do this or did they get a custom solution?
