Every torrent site I use (private sites) is now down. I can't access any of them. Are torrents being brought down?

Demonoid went down but is due back up.

IP Torrents, BitME, Oink.me, Elbitz are all still up and running.

Might be some trouble with some of the Dutch sites because of a BRIEN (Dutch copyright firm) crackdown (demonoid included).
