"Scroogle, the search engine operated by privacy militant and self-appointed 
Wikipedia watchdog Daniel Brandt, has folded for real.  After enduring DDOS 
attacks “around the clock” that sent a flood of unsustainable traffic to his 
servers, Mr. Brandt took down the search engine along with his other four 
domains, namebase.org, google-watch.org, cia-on-campus.org, and 
book-grab.com. His theory is that he was being attacked by hackers with a 
personal vendetta."
