Hackulous team has lately put an end to its two famous apps which areInstallous and AppSync. The team did this in order to stop piracy of apps. It may sound like a small step toward stopping the piracy of apps but it certainly has set an example. However the reason of their shutdown is still not clear. The team claims that forum was getting stagnant and it was getting difficult to handle it. But I do believe that there was some notorious activity going on due to which they decided to shut down their apps.
The message Hackulous Team left behind on its website stated that they had to do this as the forum was getting stagnant and was becoming like a ghost town. Due to its size, it was not well-moderated so despite of being together for years, it was better to shut it down.

So far Installous and AppSync have been the two simplest and fastest apps which could install cracked applications onto your iProducts. Hackulous repo has no doubt gone down as people cannot use these apps to install apps from third party pirate sites.
This is indeed a small step to stop app piracy. But with Hackulous out of scene, other developers will be more likely to start from the point where Hackulous left. They may come up with the latest versions of these apps in near future.
This is one of the reason why people jailbreak their iOS products and while keeping the fact in mind that there has not been any jailbreak for iOS 6, broadly speaking for iPhone 5, may be that is why Hackulous had to go out of business.

In the end, if you are the one using cracked apps then it seems like now you will have to spend some money to get what you want but if you are a developer then you must be happy to see an opportunity. No matter what it would be like for anyone else but for iOS this is not less than a victory.
