</div>Well, that's the natural reaction if you defend a company like<br>
MegaUpload. You can close your eyes as hard as you want, their business<br>
modell is based upon earning money by selling other people's work<br>
without permission.<br>
<br>
The approach to focus on the user's that mght have had legal content<br>
there is a good idea. But if you buy at a known fence, it's your risk if<br>
you get harmed too. There are much better ways for legal hosting than<br>
MegaUpload.<br>

This is obvious for pirates but not for the 99% :) Sometimes is good to take off the pirate hat.</div><div><br></div><div>I just disagree in what you said about defending them. We don't defend MU in any way. It was the main idea behind our first PR about MU, to not defend them. Their business model was awful, as long as they didn't respect removal requests (by current legislation). And this campaign would apply to any other cloud provider.</div>
