TidoWave - Locked

The TidoWave website has been locked by the 'Internal Affairs Department', presumably for allegedly destroying the Chuai station and attacking Ganu Yoshida.

I get a mirror of the old site up ASAP.

* Thanks to Richard K, Tyler W, Alex O for emailing me first!

  1. did you know the Tagruato site is down as well? check it out. the address brings you to a page with writing in Japanese that I can't read.

    Also, slight correction: the Tidowave site was locked by the "External Affairs Department". Check the watermark. Weird.

  5. The tag symbol on the tanker was known since the Widget leaked onto the net. It's when they are on the bridge long before it breaks and he pans out and sees the flaming tanker and then pans over to the statue of liberty.

  6. randy: old meme, that footage was shown in the trailer and discussed, as well as coming up in the manga :P

    hppav: it's on the news footage, isn't it?

  7. Yes, that's when it first appears but it's dark (on the widget and in the actual movie)

  9. 18 USC 2332: the federal murder statute and/or conspiracy to commit murder. USEC? Not so sure about that, but it's clear to me that this is a cite to a statute.

    Saw MGP, loved the movie.

  10. Tag is in trou-ble! 18 USC 2332(b):

    "Attempt or Conspiracy with Respect to Homicide. - Whoever outside the United States attempts to kill, or engages in a conspiracy to kill, a national of the United States shall -

    (1) in the case of an attempt to commit a killing that is a murder as defined in this chapter, be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 20 years or both;
    (2) in the case of a conspiracy by two or more persons to commit a killing that is a murder as defined in section 1111(a) of this title, if one or more of such persons do any overt act to effect the object of the conspiracy, be fined under this title or imprisoned for any term of years or for life, or both so fined or so imprisoned."

    F*cking MGP sent for someone's selfish purposes, and that particular someone is now subject to these, completely insufficient, penalties?

    And federal murder statute is not some bullshit. You need some serious clearance in order to even think about that shit! In order to even bring those charges, the offense was required to be "intended to coerce, intimidate, or retaliate against a government or civilian population."

    MGP was a murder weapon, and s/he was sent . . . to do a job . . . which s/he did very entertainingly and well!

  12. no joke, when i googled the term "2332b" and it came up that it's US Code referring to "Acts of terrorism transcending national boundaries" my heart skipped a beat. i thought i had wallowed through most of the crazy conspiracy stuff surrounding this movie, but now that i see that the TIDO website was shut down on the grounds of terrorism, i realize they flung open another door to this crazy movie.

  13. Has anyone really notice that all the sites related to Cloverfield are shut down? I haven't been on Cloverfieldclues in 24 hours and now all this happen!!??? I so new this was going to happen and I was freaking out last night. At 12:00 I’m like, “the monster just crashed the party!“ And now they're saying that the monster attack didn't happen last night? I haven't seen the movie and I don't think I can:( But it looks like that the date May 22 is when the attack really happens. Would that be 07 or 08? if its 08 then does that means that there's way more stuff on Cloverfield till May 22? Or was it 07 and there will be no more Cloverfield hype? I really need some one to help me now. And I don't want the movie to be spoiled for me. Please respond! I'm going to post this on some other recent blogs on Cloverfieldclues so I can get some help. like some really smart person writing a really BIG paragraph with NO spoilers! just facts and clues please!

  15. This is from USDOJ:

    13 Terrorism Transcending National Boundaries (18 U.S.C. § 2332b)

    Section 2332b of Title 18, U.S.C., effective April 24, 1996, was enacted as part of the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996, Pub. L. 104-132, § 702, 110 Stat. 1214, 1291. Section 2332b is intended to reach violent international terrorist activity that takes place within the United States where at least a part of that activity also occurs outside the United States. The violent conduct can be targeted against persons or property within the United States. The statute covers such conduct when it violates either Federal or state law. It sets forth a wide spectrum of bases to assert Federal jurisdiction. It provides for consecutive punishment in addition to any other Federal offense that was committed. Subsection § 2332b(e) also gives the Attorney General (i.e., the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI)) primary investigative authority for all "Federal crimes of terrorism" as that term is defined in § 2332b(f).
