Now on to the current issue. I'm posting this here because a lot of yall are concerned. I’m not saying closing down sites is not possible. It’s just not as easy as people think.
MGo has gotten into trouble with authors before. Many times now actually. The worst case was when the author themself created an account here and threatened to take legal action against jjcat (the uploader of said author's manhwa), other uploaders, the readers, and the site itself. They even got other authors involved.
In the end though nothing really major happened beyond the comments being disabled. MGo's comment section eventually came back and jjcat continues to upload--many many other works at that
ETA FOR MORE CONTEXT
Back then things spiraled fast and got way too much attention. Users were panicking and posting all over MGo similar to what is happening now but much worse. Comment sections were flooded people were mass reporting and messaging the site and everything got chaotic especially with a legal threat happening publicly.
Disabling comments helped calm things down on MGo’s side but it did not actually solve the problem. The people involved just took it elsewhere (twttr). Lzhn and wbtn also ended up being pulled into it too (bc the author's work was serialized on lzhn). Its been nearly 5 years now, and MGo is still running and the uploader involved was never taken to court
TL;DR
i know it CAN play a role, but just getting exposure is not enough to close a site. Mgo has faced several disputes, even lzhn and wbtn somehow got involved, but the site is still running and jjcat was never held accountable.
