Pagereboot.com Down Temporarily

Pagereboot:I have received several (a few somewhat unpleasant) emails/phone calls regarding this site. I would like to explain why I have decided to take it offline again.

Initially the site was being used by protestors in Iran against their government and their unjust practice in the recent elections.

However, since then, the Iranian government have been using it to attack the websites of the protestors, notably http://balatarin.com – it is for this reason I have decided to take the site offline again.

This tool can be effectively used as a ‘weapon’ by both sides, and while I fully support the protestors fighting for their freedom against an unjust state, I cannot allow it to be used to attack websites promoting free speech.

I hope to get the site online again in the near future, but not until I can be sure it can not be used against those fighting for their right to freedom.

This is also the reason why I have decided to stop releasing the source code, however you can try http://www.refreshthing.com/ in the meantime, which does pretty much the same thing.

Thanks to everyone who has sent their messages of support.

– Ryan
