FTC suspends major adult hosting, many sites may be down (especially operated by rus)

Quote:
Since 12AM CET major hosting company 3FN experiences downtime. Many webmasters and programs (especially russian ones) got in trouble with their sites. 3FN is one of the most popular hosting companies in russian adult webmaster community.

As 3FN owner said: 'The problem is caused by decission of FTC, which suspended access to our network and phusically to all our equipment. Right now we are working with layers on resolving this issue. We can't switch main and back up routers on because we don't have access to them. At the beginning it was just a technical problem with network deny, but in 20 min the power was turned off. It seems like FTC has claims to some hosted sites and their content'.

Owner also says that the situation is very hard because of complicated system of US law, but they are working to solve it.

SBD Information. In 2008 two other major hosting companies EstHosts and McColo were closed by authrorities. EstDomains, EstHost daughter company, became the first registrar after FlyDomains, which license was canceled by ICANN. All domains were moved to ResellerClub, though many of them were suspended. There were rumors that in both cases it happened because of supporting spammers, illegal pharma and malware sites.
