Here is the link, USGovt finally decided to pull the plug on Gox in USA. I would hope that no one had their coins in that horrid exchange anyway but if you do now get them out, although it might be too late. LEO doesn't care about Gox making commission and not having to pay for a license, they know SR uses BTC and that's why they're coming for Gox!

So long Magic The Gathering Online Exchange  ;)

This news is a couple days old, but I agree, they would not have seized the Dwolla account unless they have evidence of financial crimes. I believe Karpeles will be indicted and probably extradited, and it's prudent to withdraw all BTC from MtGox.

US fucking A at its best.
Why does the US government have to police the whole fucking world, instead of minding their own fucking business.

I don't know man, and trust me I HATE that my country does this. As a USA citizen, please accept my most humble apologies for my fucked-up political system and government. I extend only love to people from other countries. I am not my country, nor do I condone many of its actions worldwide. I merely live in it. So yeah. Hopefully things will change for the better. Just keep treating everyone as PEOPLE and not stereotypes and we will evolve as a species.

I do not accept your apology for the following reasons:
First of all you're not the US government, hence it's not your fault that they've got such a fucked up political system.
I know that there are lots of Americans who disagree with what the government does and I certainly do not lump those together who actually try hard to make changes which we could benefit all from, with those who are conservatives, brainwashed fucks.
Don't worry, I know how to distinguish between "bad" and "good" people and I certainly have no intention in overgeneralizing.
Therefore you don't have to apologize to me  :-*

We're all in the same boat, we all live in countries with fucked up governments, so let's make the best of it.

Couldn't have said it better, i merely live here as well and once i have enough money and a plan i intend to move. I am truly embarrassed at some things my govt does. And they got an agenda for everything.

surely, this will have no affect on non-Americans using mtgox.

Keep using it at your heart's content, if you aren't an american.
