[pp.int.general] Megaupload lawyer Q&A on DOJ criminal case

[Justus Römeth]

I agree here. But for a plutocracy it has a lot of democratic tools, and
still a somewhat democratic ethos (and certainly a lot of democratic
pathos), so, given today's state of the internet, it seems that more harm
(in reputation) than good (what are the risks with hosting in the US?) can
come from moving the US pirate party's web presence to servers in Iceland.
For private blogs, or (e-)businesses I do see a lot of advantage, but not
for a political party.
