With news of raids, seizures, attacks on torrent sites, the future might not look good for Torrenting. Many sites like Demonoid have been shut down in raids conducted by the authorities. Many others are facing DDoS & other types of attacks which can only be the work of Authorities. Owners’s of these websites are being sued by DMCA & other bodies. Many search engines are now downgrading the rank of torrent sites to promote the riches of some against many.
But will all this result in an end to torrent world? The answer is straight forward- No. No, you cannot curb torrenting as it is run by people for the people. You can shut down torrent sites but then some other site would take its place. You can DDoS as much as you like but sites like PirateBay would cope up with that too. New torrent sites open everyday. Government cannot stop people from sharing what they think is right & until general public are behind torrents no one can stop it.

Authorities can be damn inconvenient though.
I miss Demonoid.
