FBI CLOSES FILM PEEK

April 1st 2007 20:58
This is some sad news, but two days ago I got a message through Jon that FBI wants to close filmpeek.net and that we have 5 days to do it. They claim that the trailers and clips are illegaly published here, without owner's approval.

I won't go into what I think of this, but it's something like BS. Here's an excerpt from their message:

Because of the site's participation in illegal activities and content "..." we have decided to prevent further damage by shutting filmpeek.net down. This case is investigated throughly and nothing can be said against it.

I, filmpeeker, have had a great time writing over here and hopefully will be able to start something similar somewhere else in the near future. Take care!



Okay, this is a lame and pretty late April Fool's day joke, but it amused me in a similar version I saw at another site and hopefully did the same to you. I understand I lost like all my readers by now, but I'll try to gain them back. Please come back!!

Have a good day.

heh heh, good joke...

When I read it, I thought, that doesn't make sense... why would the FBI have anything to do with it?

Well FBI does hunt illegal content, but it still doesn't make much sense since stuff from YouTube can't be blamed on other sites using them

But I didn't have the time to think of something better so...

Have a good one,

You certainly came across a much better joke than I did FP.

Maybe I should have made mine a little more blatant like yours, although I did think some people would twig to the name of the 'witness' I used.

Next year I might have to come asking you for help. ; )

OMG FP,

That was good...bravo!

You had me, hook line and sinker (mind you it is the 2nd)... never the less, good one...need I add that I was going to comment on how we'd miss you?

Glad we won't have to and we can go on soliciting your illegal clips...

Lots of comments, maybe it should be April Fool's day more often (duh).

Tracy,

I'm glad someone fell for it. And that you felt perplexed.

Melissa,

Ah don't worry, April Fool's day is about someone getting fooled, whether that's the joker or the audience. I look forward to next year's joke!

Josh,

Net neutrality forever!!!

Lilla,

Will you really miss me? Ah, that's touching.

Bryn,

I know you got fooled! C'mon admit it!

Ahmed,

Yepp it is, good day for jokes.


YOU*RE ALL FOOLED! (almost)

LOL
