FileSonic disables all file-sharing & Uploaded.to blocks access to US users
Following the shutting down of Megaupload on Friday, Filesonic have now disabled all file-sharing features, and Uploaded.to has blocked access to all US users. "All sharing functionality on FileSonic is now disabled,” says a notice on FileSharing’s front page. “Our services can only be used to upload and retrieve files that you have uploaded personally."
Uploaded.to users located in the United States who try to access the site are blocked entirely, held back by a landing screen: “Not available,” it reads. “Our service is currently unavailable in your country. Sorry about that.”
Both FileSonic and Uploaded.to are registered outside the US. FileSonic is registered in the Netherlands; Uploaded.to lists a building in Hong Kong as its primary address. Megaupload's demise is now affecting the whole world.
