Demonoid Shuts Down Again
Written by Ernesto on November 09, 2007Demonoid.com, one of the most popular BitTorrent trackers, was forced to go offline again because the Canadian Recording Industry Association (CRIA) threatened their ISP.
It’s been just over 6 weeks since the CRIA allegedly shut down the Demonoid BitTorrent tracker. Details were scarce at the time, with lots of people simply claiming the site had some technical or server issues. Indeed, TorrentFreak came in for quite some criticism when we claimed the CRIA was involved, but when the site returned there were some ominous signs which seemed to support our claims.
Eventually, the Demonoid trackers reappeared, followed by the site itself but was forced to block Canadian visitors by the CRIA. However, despite blocking Canadians, it seems the CRIA hasn’t yet had enough of harassing Demonoid and its host.
On Demonoid.com we now read:
“The CRIA threatened the company renting the servers to us, and because of this it is not possible to keep the site online. Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for your understanding.”
Indeed, Demonoid’s host had previously said that if it had any major hassle, it was likely it could pull the plug on the site.
A message on the Demonoid IRC channel says: “Site is down, tracker is up. Expect the site to return, unless we hear otherwise from Deimos.”
Canada seems to becoming more unfriendly for BitTorrent sites - Demonoid aren’t the only ones being threatened by the recording labels there.

Hi. My name is Kainegaroo. Some of you know me, a lot more of you will over time. I live in the US, And in my State, I’ve been told a 1000 times im the smartest man they’ve ever met. Its guys like me that made demonoid great. Even if demonoid goes…. I’ll still be here, waiting, and helping, and uploading. Even if they completely firewall every connection and block every port, i will never leave my brothers. THE SITE IS DOWN but demonoid is still everywhere. Independence limited, Freedom of Speech is words that they will bend. Freedom no longer free’s you. Oh shit, …. i just quoted Metallica from 20 years ago… better shit my mouth before the CRIA… ah fuck em. Just look for Familiar Faces where you go, such as me. Ya know, i feel the worst for my children… They’re not even going to know what it’s like to be Human… only slaves. DONT BUY ANY CD’s. period. No matter how bad you want to. Dont buy a single DVD.. i know its hard. Shit im not even buying any new game sytems anymore. And yes, one person CAN make a difference. Dont buy… let them suffer. It wouldnt be so bad if 98 of the 100 movies ive downloaded werent crap anyways. They have been taking us consumers to the cleaners for a looong time, instead of complaining, do the best thing… DONT BUY… Christmas is in a lil over a month. Let them see a 35% drop in sales… they’ll lay off. The best way to hit them is in their wallet. Im even quitting smoking, because my Marlboro’s just hit 4.00 a pack, and ironically, i just talked my wife into moving to Canada for more Freedom… I dont want to be communist but shit, sharing and being equal is the basis of their culture. WTF is wrong with us… My family were members of the original 13 colonies… i wish i could go back in time and show them how Money rules my life worse than England EVER did.
My name is Kainegaroo. Remember me. You, every one of you, will hear about me one day, when i do the great thing everyone says ill do… But i will greatly restrict who gets my Technology. And it wont be any Canadians.
I loved you all, even the dickheads, because YOU at least had the guts to take charge of you own thoughts, and see there is no difference in bringing my Megadeth Cd to your house, or sending it to you over the net.
this sucks but this has happened before so it’l most likely be back. i have just spent hours preparing my rave musik torrents for upload, they’l have to wait now. o well. my name is raindancerob on demonoid.
Damn! Put them back!

seriously, get over yourself, you will never be heard of again. you are saying nothing new. you must be what, about 15 years old right? thinking you can rally the internet troops to fight behind you? you have no idea.
demonoid will be back though. even if it doesn’t come back, fuck it, there’s way better trackers around.

I think that your proposal is not the ethical thing to do.
However, if you choose to do so, then follow the money.
Hit the spot where the pressure comes from.
MPAA/RIAA
But I recommend not doing so.
The tide will change.
We are on the ethical side.
WE are the masses.
Revolution will come.

Have any of you actually contributed financially to Demonoid… i have… over and over and over. But who cares right? your probably fuzz reading this and bashing anyways…
o so giving them money helps, get a grip if u dont upload & seed then the site wont last, u are such a twat grow up !
I know your all mad, and taking it out on my because you cant do anything, but im in a position where i CAN. im sorry it upsets all you leechers… but maybe if youd donated, like i did 6 DAYS AGO… they’d have the money to be safe from this shit.
Seriously, i pity you.
