BTC-e is one of the very few Bitcoin exchanges, which respect the privacy of its users, and do not collaborate with the American (and other governmental) agencies. So obviously they are going to face a few problems. Already the site is banned in Russia, and the users there are being forced to access the exchange via VPN.

It's one of the exchanges I respect the most. It's only a bummer for people who withdrew because they were in need of money to pay bills and such.
