[NoFile]

This was an interesting read and we will do our best to avoid this fate.

Right now we're focusing on patching bugs and providing a stable service, but in the future a premium service will be created which targets heavy users.

PS You can change the status of the last active host in your list (Minus.com) to shut down as well.

I've been running a public file hosting site for 11 years, I've always treated it as a side project to use for playing with technology.

The primary reason it's still alive today is out of obligation to the URLs (2 million or so) that call it home. If you don't already find this fun and don't feel the same obligation, then you'll join the thousands of others littering the web with 404s.

Also, be aware that people will upload bad shit, and you can look forward to phone calls from the FBI and others.

The site is open source, maybe you'll find it useful: https://github.com/kudos/hostr
