TVShack.cc was seized as part of a US federal law enforcement action dubbed “Operation in Our Sites v2.0″. TVShack.cc was the successor of TVShack.net, which was seized in June of 2010 for copyright violations.

The website TVSHACK.CC, which was ordered seized by Seizure Warrant-2, was a target of an ongoing investigation into websites that illegally distribute copyright-protected content, particularly first-run movies and television shows, over the Internet. TVSHACK.CC, is a “linking” website, which provides access, or “links,” to other websites where pirated movies and television programs are stored. Linking websites allow users to
quickly browse content and locate illegal copies of movies and television shows that would otherwise be more difficult to find.

TVSHACK.CC is the successor to TVSHACK.NET, which was seized at the end of June 2010 for similar criminal copyright violations. At its inception, TVSHACK.CC’s homepage featured a photograph of a rap music group and the title of one of their songs: “F*ck the Police” – an apparent reference to the seizure of the site’s predecessor by law enforcement.

Well i will be sure to get on the shack's mailing list to know their next site because most of the network content for free sites are so ad spammed they can;t run without watching a nissan commercial 265 times to get midway through one episode.
Nice to see the government being proactive about something, too bad they couldn't have policed mortgage banking procedures for the last 10 years with the same zeal.

the government just need to leave them alone because the idiots will just buy a different domain every time.

And there will be another domain with exactly the same site, I hope the money spent on it down was worth it.

It might be a good alternative if .WS isn't controlled by a US company.

You're right. .cc is administered by VeriSign through a subsidiary company eNIC
