[pp.int.general] MegaUpload raided, shut down on request of US authorities

[Andy Halsall]

Just as an additional - PPUK released this on it 

http://www.pirateparty.org.uk/press/releases/2012/jan/19/megaupload-takedown/

Probably worth while following up as well. Lots of annoyed people out there 
again today, and with it being so close to the SOPA strike... well.

It also seems that there is some retaliation going in from anonymous based on 
twitter and IRC.

Regards.
