R.I.P. FileSonic & Uploaded.to ? - Off-topic

http://www.prefixmag.com/news/filesonic-disables-file-sharing/60803/
So you have no doubt heard about the insanity surrounding the shutting down of MegaUpload, particularly the wild story about how the file-sharing website's founder was arrested in high fashion. Well, this has all clearly spooked other file-sharing services, including FileSonic. If you go to its homepage, you're greeted by a message that reads: "All sharing functionality on FileSonic is now disabled. Our service can only be used to upload and retrieve files that you have uploaded personally." Not only that, but Uploaded.to is no longer available for use in the U.S.
Wow. Do you think anyone else will fold in light of the ongoing witch hunt? And could a major player like Mediafire go under?
Update: The FileSonic Facebook page has now disappeared. Props

not exactly Lamar, the author of SOPA could come back with an even worse bill
http://live.drjays.com/index.php/2012/01/20/sopa-is-defeated-but-new-internet-bill-gains-critics/
fear is already programed into most Americans
So lets make the bill into something more appealing.
What would people fear the most, something happening to their children
And how dare anyone go against something to helps children
total manipulation

i hope everyone with a filesonic account asks for a refund.

We all need to take a reality check and remember that there is always some arse trying to make a buck off of stuff we put out there for free.
Seems like us chefs need to put some watermarks in our images and throw in Modaco's donate application in our ROMs to make sure we get credit where credit is due.
I'm not too too pissed about it, since I already put it out there and there is no point in trying to stop something that has already been done. However, I'm definitely going to start making changes for existing and/or future ROMs.
BTW, noticed that this eBay auction was already removed. Thanks to Squallion for the PM...

i understand what you mean but maybe the idea is that you pay not for the software but for the flashing and support. then it's not stealing though the guy should give some percentage of the money of course...

New message from ATT with free software

Did anyone else get a bizarre message today?
AT&T Free Msg: Click below to download a free mobile app! Std data rates apply. Send stop to 2402 to end mktg msg
http://b.wappush.net/wapclick//ma/1164557/218325296
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Anyone know what this is... strangely enough, I am very reluctant to download software recommended by random text messages.....
i received that same text message...didnt bother downloading because it was from an unknown sender
Also think about this. IF AT&T was offering free software wouldn't they put it on wireless.att.com?
The link redirects (or tries to before timing out) to http://wap2.cingularextras.com.
Trying to go to http://www.cingularextras.com takes you to http://mediamall.wireless.att.com which is pretty much where you'll end up trying to 'Shop' from http://wireless.att.com/home.
You can go into your Account and uncheck all the marketing options. I used to get text messages for promotions and what not and I removed all of them and now I don't get anything.

They certainly wouldn't distribute over a text message from a domain called wappush.net. I'd be more than reluctant to download it. It screams of a virus.

Sure tell everyone the Code. Now scammers know to put att in the first three words. And At&t Really should be smart enough not to use such an unidentifiable website. The should use wappush.att.net or something. I'm still very suspicious of this.

[Q] Banned from a forum straight after signup! wtf??!?!?

So i wanted to this forum because i wanted some help with a model boat. So i fills in the registration, does the weird letter thing. And click "i agree" the submit. Then i recieve this:

}
I HAVE NOT DONE ANYTHING!!!!
Could this be because i did the weird word thing wrong?
Thanks
Well it just might be that they have certain security features that only allow you in once they have personally approved your registration. Until then, accessing the site through the address that it was directing you to after you hit "Agree" might have registered you as an unapproved member.
Maybe you have a split (evil) personality you don't know about......
Another possible reason is a poorly selected username.
Or... what I said?
contact Admin forum, it must be an internal problem...

I guess they disabled/banned the guest user due to spamming. I don't blame them. Time to wait for your account to be verified
Never heard of their choice in forum type though.

There are several ways to ban users. One of them is by IP banning, which causes anyone registering with that IP to be either automatically banned or rejected upon registration. The only bad thing about this is that you can ban a lot of innocent people by doing this, and this may have just been the case.

No matter how many times I contact admins, I can't get psn to tell me why my username and email were banned upon registry for my psp 3 yrs ago.
Sucks cause I have an email setup just for psn that I would like to receive updates on the one I use for the rest of my life.

Second Picture:
My Question is, WHY both markets are different? I live in Pakistan and I was wondering why we dont get the same one as shown in First Picture?
Is there any way I could get the one shown in First Picture?
Someone gave me an idea that MarketUnlocker is there for this reason. But i have tried playing with it and i was unable to get my desired results.
Anyone have any idea about it?
The one in the first picture is for the states (or places that have Google Music, Video Books). Currently not available in all countries and while you may figure out how to get it it will still be useless as I am sure you will still need a US credit to purchase anything from Google Books for example. Or a US address to have the Galaxy Nexus delivered etc

Hey! Thanks for the prompt response
I thought they would've SOMETHING which is free. Would it hurt if i download some "Free" music or books from Google Play Store? You know what i mean ...
So everything is paid there? And are you saying its impossible for me to get it on my device?

Yes of course it's paid else you could order a free GNex
And also yes it is possible to get it by using a US proxy but I don't see the point in doing so

With the same Market Unlocker Pro version I guess?
Well i will try to do that, just to settle my curiosity. Otherwise, i get your point that there is no benefit for doing that.
Lastly, Thank you very much for the prompt response. Appreciate it

If you drive on the road, you need this app

I found this cool app called Driving Assistant Robin. It is similar to Siri sort of. The main goal of the app is for you to make driving on the road easier.
It does this by SPEAKING an ETA and it gives you an alternative route if it believes your going to be stuck in traffic forever. It will also read incoming text messages and emails while you are driving.
It has some more features as well... however, the best feature is that it is FREE.
Learn more about it here:
The Best Android App for Driving

I am just trying to help keep people safe on the road.
Hundreds of people die every year because they read a text or an email while they are driving. Now, they don't have to worry about this because Driving Assistant Robin will read the email and text message for you while you drive. The app is free as well... you should really go and check it out!
