Unless you've started a multi-million dollar company... I don't think you're in any place to call KimDotCom "fraud" or "idiot"

You could make literally, word-for-word the same argument about Bernard Madoff. All you'd have to do is change the names.

Or Jordan Belfort for that matter. Not sure if "idiot" is warranted though; it's not like they made their money through dumb blind luck.

I don't see how starting a business which had multi-million dollar revenue really contradicts the fraud part.

Fraud can result in substantial revenue?
