Why? The owners aren't putting the content up.
It's just an upload server. As long as the owners respect takedown requests, they are doing nothing wrong.

This is just the beginning. One day the government will wage war on the internet like it wages war against drugs

Only hours before the DoJ and Universal sites went down, news broke that Megaupload, a massive file sharing site with a reported 50 million daily users, was taken down by federal agents. Four people linked to Megaupload were arrested in New Zealand and an international crackdown led agents to serving at least 20 search warrants across the globe.
 [mod]ing clowns.. way to spend valuable time arresting no one of any importance

Don't line the pockets of the movies studios, just don't watch movies, it isn't a right.

Hmm, given that this government raid includes arrests in New Zealand, I'm not sure they need more power to battle internet crime.
