Feds Shutdown Top File-Sharing Site, Megaupload Today

File sharing is ******* the porn industry. It's a fact.
 
Don't get me wrong, I'm sure some sliver will survive. But if you want the bonanza of the last 20 years to continue, you gotta support it with your pocketbooks.
 
As this seems to be the most concentrated thread for this topic, here's a quote from Premium Link Upgrade I came across today:
Robert Heinlein said:

This strange doctrine is not supported by statute or common law. Neither individuals nor corporations have any right to come into court and ask that the clock of history be stopped, or turned back.
 
I just checked one I know of... and it too is gone!.

Megaupload: Some accounts belonged to US officials

Megaupload founder Kim Dotcom says not all of the file-sharing site's users were what some might imagine them to be: Crooks sitting in dark rooms, selling pirated movies, TV shows and music.

In fact, Dotcom contends, "a large number" of customers are from the U.S. government -- the very same folks prosecuting him in what may be one of the biggest copyright cases in history.

In an interview with website *******Freak, Dotcom said, who says the case against him is politically motivated, said: “Guess what – we found a large number of Mega accounts from U.S. government officials including the Department of Justice and the U.S. Senate.”
