Downtime
We received a letter from a lawyer represeting the CRIA, they were threatening with legal action and we need to start blocking Canadian traffic because of this.
Thanks for your understanding, and sorry for any inconvenience.
Well, the CRIA was involved. You can now go to demonoid.com without a problem. Go check it out.
The latest episodes of Heroes and Prison Break have been downloaded over a million times already. However, quite a few paranoid downloaders noticed that the .torrent files, apparently released by EZTV, were using the MiiVi.org tracker. A trap perhaps?
No, Miivi.org has nothing to do with the alleged honeypot project from MediaDefender which was hosted on MiiVi.com. On the contrary, the Miivi tracker is a project in part sponsored by The Pirate Bay and other BitTorrent sites.
Don’t they know they have already been exposed at Media-defenders with a new name and new look. Hmm, wonder when they will release that if they will at all!!
My BT client has just established a connection with the Demonoid tracker! The site at demonoid.com is still down however. If this is indeed the tracker back online, it is very encouraging news!
As stated before the tracker is working and I would love to know what happened did the CRIA take down it and they just switched servers or what?
Demonoid.com, one of the most popular BitTorrent trackers has allegedly been taken offline by the Canadian Recording Industry Association (CRIA). Both the tracker and the website have been unresponsive for nearly 24 hours.

What in the world is this a trick or something?
