News Internet issues
The biggest issue concerning anime fans like us is the fact that HorribleSubs and NyaaTorrents have been down twice over the past two days. Due to DDoS attacks completely unrelated to the crackdown of illegal anime sites by the Japanese government, both sites claim to have been down because of similar Network Infrastructure issues. As there's no alternative proxy sites setup, people have resorted to either Tokyo Toshokan or joining IRC groups and downloading the old-fashioned way. Only time will tell if these sites will get back up again.
NOTE: I don't support piracy in any way. I just report on what I hear. I am guilty of downloading illegally, but who hasn't? Support the anime/manga industry by buying DVD/Blu-Rays/Manga/Merchandise.
