What happened to EP and its demise?

The site just like this and all social media websites are under the influence of societies values.

If a website does not comply to the majority of the prevailing opinion. They can not withstand the social pressure.

This is happening even this very moment on this website. It's why reorganization is even happening.

The prevailing social pressure has nothing to do with the members of any website. The social pressure is coming from all the larger websites.

Google is evil itself! Just to name the largest.

They posted a message when they went down saying they did not want to be liable for what people said or did as a result of the site.

Before they shut down EP posted a message on the homepage. The message said that the powers that be wanted access to all private massages and they wanted to monitor all future messages they also threatened legal action if EP did not comply. So to protect the privacy of the EP members EP figured they had no choice but to shut down. I was sad to see that but I salute them for doing it. Cheers!

A member (someone I was actually friends with) met with another member (she didnt know him) in a secluded area. He kidnapped her, tied her up , and cut her throat. The FBI wanted the info on all members on the site and the owners of EP refused. Ultimately I think they decided to close the site rather than submit to the government's request. At least that is what I was told and what I read about .

I saw a post on Quora from the ep owner explaining and answering questions about ep's demise.

This is a link to that post:
