Kinda stupid of them to be in New Zealand what with it's good relations with the USA. Similar thing happened to the Pirate Bay owners, but they didn't even own the site any more...or maybe they did, they at least seemed not to.
Megaupload is like Rapidshare though isn't it? A hosting site? They should be covered by Safe Haven status (they get contacted told that someone has put up copyrighted material they pull it and let the user and the claimer sort it out) I am not in the mood for actually reading the links so what is it they have actually been charged with?
Before anyone gets on their little horse, this has nothing to do with SOPA or PIPA and will be using the current, legal DMCA.
