WTF???? Pokerstars gone

Anyone else hear about this? I played on pokerstars last night and today I can't.

Is this state specific? I'm in MO.

Forums say this is nationwide and I found this link: http://www.justice.gov/usao/nys/pressreleases/April11/scheinbergetalindictmentpr.pdf

I got the same bull in CA, was playing till noon, now I can't. I'm a patriotic person, but America truly sucks now that they're really enforcing this bullshit!

The Department of Justice indicted PokerStars, Full Tilt, and Ultimate Bet owners. PokerStars has already apparently shut off real money games to the USA. The others may soon follow.

US Players are now banned specifically from Pokerstars.. FT has not done this yet but probably will soon.
