Ansem Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Blah Saw some shit on MSN, it seems sorta legit. According to this, the FBI is gonna shut down internet servers at 12:01 EDT. What do you guys think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inactive Account Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Do you read. They're apparently shutting down a server that's been keeping computers that have been infected with specific malware alive. Not infected, no loss of access. Where did you get the idea that they were going to, or were even capable of, shutting everything down? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't play for turns Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Well, I'm posting on July 9th, so that's proof that the FBI did not shut down the internet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aurabolt Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Same. The number of people who were actually effected is VERY small and IMHO the way they rolled out the news created needless panic. Besides, those who were infected should have had their computers cleaned well before today anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melonhead Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Didn't shut down the internet. Not like they could, anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Lol, I've known about this for a very long time. People who have been infected have had PLENTY of time to get their machines cleared, so it's the owner's fault if they lose their ability to connect to the internet.
