We're not just talking "smoking gun" here; it's the equivalent of video with mugging for the camera. 
Essentially, the FBI fully documented (with the gang's own emails) that Megaupload's primary purpose and revenue generation engine was the unlicensed distribution of copyrighted material. Any non-infringing use of the service was incidental and minor compared to the illegal activity.
It looks like it's all over but the plea bargains. |
Nice to know just what kind of people it is that "Anonymous" are defending.
