^^ hahahah

I'm pretty sure that there are 100's of domain names in reserve, ready to be activated in the event that the pirate site is shutdown.

As we know, is very difficult to actually take something from the Internet, then the fact AliExpress recognize that pirate site are criminals and ban them is a good start.

I'm not getting my hopes up. When I see the news stories of Actual prosecutions, and convictions (including jail time), I'm not going to believe it.

There were some recent news items related to Ali Baba Express.
Not only have they gone global and on to the Stock Exchange
but they have hooked up with one or more big north American companies.
Ali Baba is apparently a big force in financial news right now.

Sorry I am not able to quote any news sources at the moment.

But I think, as a result of all this, they are pressured to clean up some of their wares
and that might include dropping a few clients.
But I doubt they have bowed to pressure from outside sources, its all business.

I may be wrong on this, but I thought pirate site was actually one of Alibaba's own stores...not just a client?
In which case, they are just pruning their own retail outlets.

Regardless, its a good thing to see pirate site go the way of the Dodo.
They provided no service to the paper model hobby or community.

Say wat?

It looks like they even have a pirate site. Got to go and email the chinese police. It might be difficult as we know there are clones in the market of China.

If you are to google pirate site you will find the pirate site and AliExpress site. However if you are to click the AliExpress site there are no models from the seller pirate site which i reported. However the seller on pirate site is different, They are named: pirate site. I have reported them to the Headmaster and i will be writing to them.

Edit: After a quick search on pirate site, i found that there were more than 3 sellers selling merchandise from the 'Paper looters' These all state that they were made in Shanghai and the stores are all over china. And if you are to go to the google image page of pirate site, and then to the images which lead to AliExpress, it will bring you to a badly constructed page.Then when you click the details button, it leads you to google. ?? Mystery!
