Default Megaupload gets shutdown.

US Justice Department, and ICE have taken down Megaupload:

From wikipedia:
Quote:
On January 19, 2012, Federal prosecutors in Virginia closed down Megaupload and laid charges against its founder Kim Dotcom and others for allegedly breaching copyright infringement laws.
Acting upon a US Federal prosector's request, New Zealand police arrested Dotcom and three other Megaupload executives near Auckland on Friday, 20 January (NZDT, UTC+13).
