I never knew what that was. But that's sad. What kind of downloads did it do?

I am totally against SOPA. I do, although, agree that piracy is a problem. Sites like megaupload allow users to upload pirated media. *sigh* If only people were more responsible and we all got along, and we were all peaceful, and we could all understand that piracy is wrong, if you want it you have to pay money. How would you like if you worked in the movie industry (actor, director, camera man, exc.) and people were getting away with pirating something you did! Something you worked hard on! I'm not saying I agree with SOPA, I am merely saying that I understand what they're getting at, but they're trying to take it to far!
Just delete the pirate stuff, or have the videos/uploaded files be checked before putting them online.
Anyone agree with me?

@lucaspms55: I googled "megaupload is back" and this one paper said that people are making fake sites to fool them to thinking their back. o.o

*sigh* SOPA nor PIPA is in effect . PIPA still needs to get voted on and that happens on the 24th.SOPA is delayed. If it passes still needs to go to the President.

Megaupload is not only getting indicted for copyright infringement also racketeering, and money laundering. Also could be linked to disrupting/threats the Justice Department to website.The picture is a bit more than that.
