agreed, MU has already been destroyed pretty much

however, wondering if the whole case is thrown out, what options MegaUpload has to sue. He sure seems the kind of guy with the funds to put up a fight

dunno, Megaupload is now famous in a way it never was before. If the site somehow reopens, there will be attention.

I'm no real fan of MU or kim dot com but the way all this occurred taking down the guys whole business empire and putting him under arrest makes me think it can happen to any dot com company which I am (I trade in Europe, NZ and australia and a .com address seems the most logical to make it country agnostic)

I seriously hope he takes the NZ government for millions for being a bunch of FBI arse kissers.

And maybe he can use the wads of cash he gets to fund a start-up pirate party here.
