I agree with the article above. It is not what one thinks of megaupload et al. It is that without a trial, the govt. has acted to extinguish a website. They are just getting everyone 'used' to this. the next gleam in their eyes are all the politically annoying sites, like this one...or most of the bloggers in the USA they don't like, news stories they don't approve. Big Brother would have loved this. It is Hitlerian for sure. They claim the right to close down sites outside the USA, as well as those in.
