    In case anyone missed the news, Kim Dotcom's finances have earned him a pair of handcuffs and as such, Megavideo (along with its subsidiaries) were shut down. If you had a paid account, I hope it didn't include copyrighted material. Keep in mind the shut down was a result of embezzlement and shady finances, not necessarily due to pirating of copyrighted material.

    At present they're not going after downloaders, but I'm sure FBI doesn't mind "sending a message." There's probably a lot of paranoia out there today.

    Seeing that Kim Dotcom had a fleet of flashy cars with license plates that said things like "GUILTY" and "HACKER," I'm reminded of the mafia guys in "Goodfellas" who stupidly spent money on high-ticket clothes and cars after a big heist. "Come and get me, coppers!"

    maybe people would take Anon more seriously if they stopped blasting cheesy movie soundtracks over their statements...
