Keep some soap handy, you might want to shower any slime that splatters off the screen.
Never mind the piracy empire; he's got a history of insider trading, pump-n-dump fraud, embezzlement...

Yikes I don't think this was mainly aimed at taking down a file hosting site. That article shows just that. It's just once of things he was involved with that they could charge him with seeing they had emails and proof they kept the takedown files for their own use and was aware of pirated material and used it themselves. There is so much more to the story of what they were involved with.
I am sad to see Megaupload go. I know plenty legit users in the Sims world that used it for legit game creations. However the people that ran it obviously were into alot of bad stuff.
