...because it could all be permanently deleted in a couple of days. Bad enough it's off-line, but should they do this, there's no chance of recovering anything.

So yeah, without trial or due process, not only they took down a site, but now they can potentially purge everything too (even legit stuff)? WTF?

They'll purge it all, it will be a ghost of what it once was (if it comes back at all).
Look for them to start shipping the letters out in a few months to the people (they can trace) that had files of "dubious" origins uploaded.
Must make a statement in "the war against piracy". :wanker:
R**idshare and the likes will start policing more heavily, other sites may become "members only" and "fade into the background".
They can fight the war, but...like they say, "where there's a will, there's a way", and they will always find a way.

Theres an article in Gawker about a "New" Megaupload that will launch a DDos on sites and could land you with a prison sentence!

According to Anon's statement and confirmed reports they took down 14 sites in retaliation on the 19th.

Okay. How about they start taking down websites that people actually visit that are being run/supported by the government, the MIAAfia, and the like?
-
I'm so goofy. I thought it was pronounced Meg-aup-load, not Mega-up-load.

shouldn't govts/police etc be putting all this energy into cp sites and online paedophile rings

Where's the money in that it's only crime. Megaupload has assets to seize :dollar:

Anon's been stiking against the cp sites for quite awhile, they are usually a favorite target with hackers.
