I am kind of surprised Disneys sites are still up and running since they are the largest movie production and releasing agent next to Sony (possibly bigger)

As of 11PM EST, the White House, DOJ and FBI sites are up. Either the DDOS attack is over or they figured out how to block it.

Should have lived in a country that doesn't extradite to USA. seems kinda weird that the USA can demand this if they never ran a business in the USA either...... Megaupload might get the last laugh.
