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?

The removed will do shutdowns in waves so they can destroy the files before more copies pop up

Random instances can group, that’s soll random.

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.
