Remember when TV links got taken down by the US?
The domain redirected to a "Seized by the US government" page, even though it was a uk domain name and it was hosted in the uk.
The American government seem to think they own the internet, and this is another attempt to control it. They are scared because it's the only thing not directly under their control.
EDIT:
On this piracy thing people are talking about.
Me pirating Pokémon white on release day directly influenced at least 3 other people I know in real life to buy the game when they wouldn't have even considered getting it before.
Also everyone should watch this video:
An author who realised piracy can be a good thing.
