Norbits, the largest Norwegian BitTorrent tracker is going through some rough times. For several days now, the site has been offline due to a DDoS attack. The site has allegedly been hacked by a group called MORRADi, which is threatening to publish all IPs and more information on the users, unless the tracker is closed.

I don't know why they're doing this... :redface: Anyway it isn't yet clear whether they have the users' IPs, info, etc. Hopefully not.

Since I think the security of the users is the most important thing, I hope Norbits will, if really needed, shut down.

Anyway, for sure I hope they don't have to, but it's at least better than that the whole user information are published.

Yeah that's so true but still why admins there have the feeling of losing all their hard to build fame they wasted their time on ?? it's not fair at all :baeh:

Sure it's not fair.
But, what's fair today in the "warez-scene"?

OCH uploaders abuse the files of each other, torrent sites get hacked, ddosed, ...

Sounds hard but, "That's Life".

Me too, specially when they disrespect and despise others' opinions.
