This is insane. RIP megaupload. Hopefully they find a way to come back.
I don't think the owner would want to find a way to come back, if it meant chancing getting hit again with the kind of charges they were hit by.
I saw a video on this today on YouTube. I think this is crazy, over the top.
Wow, that owner made crap loads of money now arrested.
I bet he never thought of that one bill will fudge him over.
Guys he was damn fatty and he had one of the sexiest cars that I've ever seen. :|

Good to know, thanks for sharing that with us. I wonder what's going to happen to the owner and I wonder if it will ever be up again.
I find it funny that the owner of Megaupload was #1 in the world at MW3 on XBox under the name "MEGARACER" - However he's not now after being denied bail. :-)
