Wtf they actually sent him to jail for refusing to give customer data to the NSA. No wonder we hardly see any resistance nowadays.

On fairly flimsy evidence that looks suspiciously like parallel construction.

Nacchio was no saint, but it seems pretty clear that he was targeted after failing to be cooperative.

You'll actually have to go to .sh among the contenders (this is what I would suggest) as .io is not up anymore and besides .me was the original one.

It's linked on the official/original github repo[0]. But the official official[1] repo doesn't link anything. Just that original developers are supporting .sh as official and have apparently moved to it.

There's also ...ce.ch but that's community edition as the last two chars suggest.

PS. I have put info to the best of my knowledge :)

I don't have it at work, but there's a Chrome extension that allows you to stream directly from a torrent, say, from The Pirate Bay.
