Do you pay AD's bills? There's many way to dig up information. I read multiple on line rags a day.
I suggest you cool your jets instead of being an asshole.
Hope your minstrel cycle ends soon.

You make no sense.
First you said this news is 3 days old and now you said we're a week behind... if you were smart you would know that 3 days isn't a week.
if you knew about the news post it rather than slamming people. People do have things to do than sit here and post nonsense things like you're doing...
back on topic - this issue might not work since megaupload removes links too and even though hotfile doesn't have search feature, they can still prevent others from downloading/uploading copyrights. In fact, they didn't even closed the person's account of those who continues to uploaded copyrights files on their server.

let's try not to get banned ...
the issues with hotfile is that they also pay uploader money for uploading files on their site which is the same as megaupload.sad to say but hotfile and google not going to win.

Maybe it has something to do with your healthcare which conservatives regard as a form of communism.
From what I have read the lines for appointments unacceptable. The fact is at least C-A-N-A-D-A has healthcare.
In the US if you have, let's say Liver disease you are out of luck without an insurance provider or Medicare. Well, Medicare is almost worthless and will not cover a Liver transplant. Believe me, I know..
Medicare will cover a small potion of six figure medical bills but you are stuck with the remaining balance.
The first thing you do when getting any type of medical help is sign a disclosure and a promissory note stating you will pay the hospital and doctors within 6 months in most cases. How many people can afford a 100k doctor/hospital bill?
Liver transplant? Close to 1/2 million in USD when all is said and done.
So there you are lying in bed dying while the creditors harass you for payments most people cannot afford.
I am lucky having medical insurance. Really the GOV and most people don't care if you live or die.
