The path Filesonic showed to save them form FBI's, recently WUpload just started walking on it. From yesterday WUplaod disabled all file sharing functionality from their site with a message on their homepage like this
WUpload, the Argentine file hosting site was able to create a hype among the file sharers from their start. Many liked them cause of their good graphics, easy to use interface, good payments. But hings didn't worked for so long when Filesonic entered the arena & coincidentally WUpload suspended their affiliate program. This was a serious backdraw for the site & they were losing visitors quickly. And in the past 3 months, starting from December the site's pageview dropped as much as 41% & till date it is getting more & more down.
Well form now on, just like the Filesonic, WUpload has become only a site (or service) to backup of you personal data which you will not be able to share with anyone except you. In their FAQ, WUpload has not clearly stated what is the maximum limit of the disk space allocated each registered or premium users (Thogh the homepage says *Unlimited File Storage). The only thing to be gained by purchasing a premium account is to be able to upload files larger than 2GB (10GB max). But their tagline "THE ULTIMATE EXPERINECE" we think it is not any more :-/
*Update (4th March 2012) : Fileserve, another big player in this market walked the same path as WUpload. They also disabled sharing functionality like WUpload's. Well it is learnt that both the cyberlockers did so after Paramount Pictures, the movie studio declared Fileserve, MediaFire, Wupload, Putlocker and Depositfiles as rogue & must be shutdown. Well Fileserve did not put the message on their homepage, instead they put the message on the file download page.

Bitupload is still allowing filesharing though?
