Am I right in thinking that Facebook is an American business doing something in another country which is illegal in the US? Internet gambling was banned in the US, right? And that's fine with US authorities? But if a foreign business, like say Megaupload, does something which is illegal in the US, but in a foreign country all hell breaks loose.

So: US company + breaks US law + foreign country = OK Foreign company + breaks US law + foreign country = not OK

Is this not a double standard? I mean, Im still not seen google's torrent search being attacked by the FBI or who ever.

Don't get me wrong here, I don't support laws banning gambling, and I'm all for facebook, or who ever, having gambling operations where they like, but it doesn't sit right give the over all context at all.

Must have missed something, cant imagine US authorities really behaving in such a biased way.
