It appears that the reason that the Star Trek fan sites were shut down
was because Paramount was starting up their own official website, and
didn't want fan competition. However, there are still hundreds of
Star Trek fan websites out there, so it appears that only a small
fraction of them got shut down. Why some got picked on and others
didn't, I don't know...
