I’ve never known so many shutdowns inside 2 weeks as the last two have been. Even websites pirating manga were shut down. What happened? What’s with this massive legal wave of shutdowns, and why now?

My first pirate foray came in 5 1/4" floppy disk format and all I can say it that the high seas have always had heavy casualties. During the adoption of streaming services, the waters calmed for a bit. Now that those services have enshittified, pirate providers have seen a rise in demand which in turn has heated the battles once more.
