Not
too
long
ago,
there
were
reports
and
several
rumours
doing
the
rounds
about
the
infamous
piracy
website
Tamilrockers
shutting
down.
Though
there
was
no
confirmation
regarding
the
same
or
the
reason
behind
it,
a
few
tweets
suggested
that
the
Tamilrockers
team
has
announced
its
closure
with
a
screenshot
of
a
page
that
says,
"Thanks
TO
TR
For
His
Wonderful
Services
For
A
Decade-
From
Team
TMV."
Well
now,
according
to
a
regional
website
Update
New
360,
the
popular
OTT
platform
Amazon
Prime
Video
is
the
reason
behind
the
website's
shutdown.
It
is
said
that
the
video
streaming
platform
wanted
to
get
rid
of
Tamilrockers,
as
they
lost
a
lot
of
viewers
during
the
release
of
several
promising
projects
in
the
last
few
months.
A
good
number
of
movies
released
on
Amazon
Prime
Video
were
leaked
on
Tamilrockers
within
hours
of
their
release,
which
apparently
irked
the
team
who
decided
to
remove
the
ten-year-old
'renowned'
website
from
the
competition.
It
is
said
that
Amazon
Prime
Video
had
also
filed
multiple
complaints,
after
which
ICANN
(Internet
Corporation
For
Assigned
Names
And
Numbers)
suspended
the
website
erasing
all
its
content.
Well,
the
news
has
received
mixed
response
from
the
netizens,
with
many
tweeting
that
Amazon
Prime
is
the
reason
behind
the
shutdown
of
the
piracy
website.
On
the
other
hand,
some
are
also
hoping
that
Tamilrockers
would
make
a
comeback
very
soon
with
a
new
domain.
Tamil
rockers
has
been
banned
yesterday
worldwide
by
ICANN
as
they
get
DMCA
reports
from
amazon
prime
video
and
other
OTT
platforms.
So
there
is
no
chance
to
recover
the
website
until
they
create
a
new
domain
in
new
name
#tamilrockersbanned#tamilrockersnewlink#tamilrockers
if
this
news
about
#TamilRockers
is
true
next
target
will
#Telegram..
it
wont
get
banned
nd
all
but
they
will
be
forced
to
implement
stricter
copyright
laws
