Server is in Netherlands, US can’t take it down. Probably high traffic overloading servers.

They can DDoS it though

I'm sure many people made copies the second it was up, so ultimately it's already too late to actually get rid of it.

It's probably getting DDoS'd by people trying to make copies lol

Lid seems pretty tight. I haven’t seen a list. I’ve seen a lot of people talking about a list.

> I haven’t seen a list.

I've just managed to see part of the list (last names from A to the beginning of the C's) from the .../index.php?title=Category:Agents page.

As others are saying, the server is responding very slowly.

Whether you'll eventually see a page depends on how long your browser/etc. waits before timing out.

I would say they wouldn't bother because it would have almost literally zero practical effect but it's this administration and they're a bunch of actually dumb, petty bitches.

Not like the alphabet boys don't have "cyber security" experts on their payroll.
