Commercial (and payed) server for Pirate party of Serbia was shut down without any takedown notice. Early in the Saturday mourning of 11th of December the server that hosts the site of Pirate party of Serbia was suspended (along with many other sites). Neither the admin nor the site holders were noticed before outage! People in charge of these sites reacted promptly when noticed their downed sites and formerly fast tech support, was suddenly extremely slow and demanding. They called for more information and details in order to process the support.

situation developing /call for help
Call for support was directed on 11th Dec 2010 02:19 AM by Aleksandar Blagojević asking:
“Why is my account suspended?! I need information asap!”
Then, after this it took 6hrs for support to respond by asking:
“Can you please, describe in more details the problem, which you are experiencing, so that way we can look into this issue right away and provide you with the proper solution.”

To remind once again, dozen sites on the server were down all the time of correspondence! After 12hrs (twelve) hours support “determined” the problem and said:

“Hello. We need to delete all data under ‘wikileaks.piratskapartija.com’ in order to unsuspend your account. Please confirm.”

This is mochahost.com’s support responding to its regular customer, and conditioning him to approve the erasing of data in order to unsuspend the account. We approved that in order to access our data. The support unsuspended the account after more than 30hrs at 12 Dec 2010 03:36PM,  so we gained the access to our data.

Immediately after accessing our data on the server we backed up everything and redirected the wikileaks mirror page to our .nl based server at: http://46.59.1.2/.
In addition, we setup these free of charge protest-wikileaks-domains:
http://mochahost.byethost12.com/ and
http://mochahost_just_luvz_wikileaks.byethost14.com/

Meaning and goals here are plain simple: net neutrality has more power within than any form of censorship and repression combined. Even censorship and repression like these induce the louder freedom of speech.
