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

[Richard Stallman]

    Did MegaUpload block IPs from the US? Did the adress US customers with
    their ads?

Seriously, why should it matter?  If a company operating in another country
does a kind of business that is illegal in the US, does that justify
arresting the management and trying them in the US?

I don't know the facts about Megaupload, and I don't have an opinion
about it, but I think the issue of US prosecution world-wide is more
important than whether Megaupload is good or bad.
