WinMX Suspends Operations

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the i'll-take-non-extradition-ip's-for-500-alex dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Slyck.com is reporting that it appears the WinMX network has shut down its operations in response to the RIAA's letters threating legal action. Although the WinMX network is currently down, this may only be temporary as developers seem to have relocated from Canada to Port Villa, Vanuatu."

    There is absolutely NOTHING the RIAA or the USA can do about the company or the country (if they both refuse to submit to the copyright prosecution) except for the following:

    1) Get a Los Angeles class attack submarine to destroy all fiber optic links to and from Vanuatu.

    2) Deploy a squadron of F-14s from an aircraft carrier to destroy all satellite uplink/downlink facilities on Vanuatu.

    3) Impose economic sanctions on the country.

    4) Use a team of Navy SEALs or elite FBI commando units to land in Vanuatu and kidnap all individuals associated with the company and ship them to the United States for prosecution.
