Megaupload

[Kevin]

I am seriously pissed off right now.

This is the beginning of a US Government controlled internet.

This song featured Will.i.am, P Diddy, Kim Kardashian, Alicia Keys, Snoop Dogg, Chris Brown, Kanye West, Lil John, Jamie Foxx, Mary J Blige, Floyd Mayweather, and The Game. It was being taken down off of YouTube a month ago by Universal Music, claiming copyright on the song. This song is NOT copyrighted by them, yet they were allowed to take it down no questions asked. http://www.megaupload.com/ was taken down today and the owners are being sued. The site was taken down by Federal Prosecutors in Virginia.

Right now as I type this Anonymous has been taking down various sites in outrage that Megaupload is gone. I used Megaupload more then any other site. I am furious that this file hosting site is gone.



If you guys aren't worried about SOPA/PIPA you better be. This Bill isn't here yet and still this site was taken down for copy right infringement even though it is just a file hosting site. The owners are not the ones putting the files there, the users are. What do you think is going to happen to http://www.facebook.com/ http://www.youtube.com/ http://www.break.com/ or even http://www.myspace.com/ users posting copyright material will give the owners of that copyright material access to shut down the whole website in the matter of HOURS! They will just need to go to a website, report it, prove it with evidence, a Judge will look at it, a few hours later that site is no longer available. Then the owners of that site will be facing legal fee's maybe even jail time, and will be known as a Felon to the United States of America.

There is a better way to handle it rather then putting a man 500 Million dollars in debt.

[Kevin]

They are claiming everything he owns, which means that he cannon use his own posessions to put towards the debt.

It's the last 5 or so pages of that 72 page document of crap I posted.

That's ridicules. Over something he technically didn't do. It's like renting out your car and the person who rented it robs a bank, they arrest you cause it was your car and charge you with the robbery knowing you didn't do it.

America's justice system at its finest: http://www.snopes.com/legal/lawsuits.asp

Our government (USA) will for ever screw over the citizens for ever not unless you have a shit load of money! So be ready for some serious shit to go down.

Everyone hold on tight. This is the reason the worlds gonna end this year. Ruin the Internet, Ruin the world.

So we're talking about a government, that's spent $5,000,000,000,000 ($5 Trillion) in the past few years, and attacks a single company, that's entire purpose is to gain money, for Five Hundred Million Dollars, just for an illegal video.  Might as well shut down youtube, facebook, and all of those sights while they're at it, and anger the entire world.  Of which, they've already done the latter.

When will people learn that taking what's not thiers is a bad thing...

Uhm..5 trillion Dollars? on what?
