shamu726 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Facebook has removed the official page of ExtraTorrent after complaints from copyright holders. With more than 350,000 fans ExtraTorrent had one of the largest fan pages of all torrent sites on the social network. But despite the setback, ExtraTorrent's operator are not giving up on Facebook just yet. With regular competitions and frequent status updates ExtraTorrent has a very active community on Facebook.Or had, we should say.After sailing clear for nearly three years, Facebook decided to pull the plug on the site this morning citing a third-party copyright complaint.“We have removed or disabled access to the following content that you have posted on Facebook because we received a notice from a third-party that the content infringes their copyright(s),” Facebook wrote.According to Facebook the ExtraTorrent page was considered to be a repeat copyright infringer, but the staff of the torrent site refutes this characterization.ExtraTorrent’s staff tells TF that they were careful not to link directly to infringing content after Facebook warned them two years ago. However, Google cache does show occasional links to pages that list pirated movies.Facebook’s takedown message The last notice ExtraTorrent received from Facebook came in yesterday. This takedown notice complained about a post from two years ago which linked to a torrent of the film Elysium.“This post was published in 2013. It’s very curious. Looks like Facebook removed the ExtraTorrent Page because of a post from 2013,” ET’s staff tells us.This is not the first time that ExtraTorrent has been kicked from Facebook. The same happened three years ago when the site’s official page had roughly 140,000 fans.Despite the new setback, the torrent site is not giving up on Facebook just yet. They quickly launched a new page which quickly gathered thousands of followers, and many more are sure to follow.Extratorrent’s new Facebook pageSource: TorrentFreak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbaker Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 A quote from a friend of mine...."Facebook is the "mark"of the beast. The beast is "Mark" Zuckerberg. Or in other words he is kind of like an antichrist. He has enticed millions of souls....and they fell for it. It is a guise to share and connect with friends and people but it really is concealing its true nature, which is, to entrap your soul and have all your information out there. The day you got into facebook, was the day you practically sold your soul to Satan."The sooner everybody s quits that shite the better the world will be.

The day you got into facebook, was the day you practically sold your soul to Satan."The sooner everybody s quits that shite the better the world will be.Sort of correct I would say, for the most part. I would say however in my words, Facebook is a giant data collection hub disguised as a free service to keep in touch with friends and family. It is made to collect all of your private data and then, it is sold off. I liken Facebook more to the "whore of Babylon" rather than Satan directly; all your information no matter if you choose to hide it and keep it private, it is still passed around to third party companies like a drunken prostitute that doesn't get paid.It's also used to profile people and much much more bad stuff. It's best to look for better alternitives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
