Do we have any more details on why MegaUpload was taken down? It may be a legit takedown. We don't know.

Technically not illegal as long as you don't charge them. When your friend is using the DVD, you don't have a copy of it. I'm not being charged to download it. You can rip CDs to your computer. You still have the songs while your friend borrows the CD. There's no law against that. If I buy a CD, I can put it on my computer all I want. And if I wanna let my friend borrow it to listen to, you can't stop me.

Not necessarily true. They've been charged with a crime. If you're charged with vehicular manslaughter for example, the feds can seize your car as part of the investigation. That's basically what has happened here. MegaUpload has been accused of piracy and it's owners have been legally charged with piracy. Their property (the domain and servers) has been seized as part of an investigation to determine if they're really guilty or not. That is all completely legal IMO. Now, the question is whether they're really guilty and they've got evidence to prove it or if this is just a political strong arm move.

And you think if they are found not guilty that they'll just let the site go back up? This is different because vehicular manslaughter, the person is involved. The owners of the site are not involved directly in the piracy. It's all bullcrapanyways.

Look, what do you guys want? People bitch about things like SOPA that obviously go too far, but then bitch when they take down websites that are BLATANTLY and FLAGRANTLY violating the law, which is exactly what they SHOULD be doing rather than passing laws like SOPA or PIPA. Copyright law exists for a reason, and without it we would be culturally dead as a society, so live with it.
