I’ve never known so many shutdowns inside 2 weeks as the last two have been. Even websites pirating manga were shut down. What happened? What’s with this massive legal wave of shutdowns, and why now?

Anti-piracy operations always pick up when big sporting events happen because the networks that pay for broadcast rights don’t want to have to compete with unlicensed streams.
