stepsfiles.tk R.I.P.

Ok. Now I cannot just talk about it. Today my domain stepsfiles.tk has been canceled without any reason and restore possibility.
I'm so damn sad about the recent news regarding Internet. Where are we going?
The most likely cause of the shutdown is the Dot TK's service. I've read lots of user reviews, and from what I see, they can delete the domain if it gets too much traffic (like more than 500 users a day), without any notification, etc. This shows that there is no reason for me to stay on their crappy service anymore. I hope, however, that I will at least manage to restore it to get the links working, or that it could have a redirect.
Right now all the links leading to stepsfiles.tk are not working. Replace the beginning by myfiles.my1.ru instead.

SOPA and PIPA have not been passed. I wonder if it has something to do with the megaupload controversy? either way, they need to leave our f@#!ing internet alone!

It's all fine as long as they don't touch the porn sites.

yes, I know. That's why I said "hi to SOPA" and not "hi from SOPA".

so what could have happened? o.0

maybe that's because I recently put the excentric 404 and 403 pages

But I think that nothing will really change. I'm deciding to switch to stepsfiles.com.
Also, I think that I will need a new hosting as well, since I can't change the attached domain here (I have an unsolvable problem).
The worst thing is of course the links. There are pretty much links with this domain, as of WA, as not of it. So replace the beginning with myfiles.my1.ru.
