Mega upload was In essence just a warehouse to store files, imagine going to prison because you rent a house and it’s occupants store drugs there. The internet providers are the ones that allow the traffic to move over the internet, one could argue they are as much to blame. I’m not saying he didn’t know it was being used for illegal files, nor that he should have made more efforts to prevent this. But really he was picked off to make an example. I mean you can get illegal,pirated software from google drive accounts, and no one seems to be taking google on.

Surprised that the police didn't find illegal pr0n and a copy of Mein Kampf. Maybe there's a culture difference between NZ police and US police. Hollywood loosing €500 million is just one Indiana Jones movie. How do you even lose money on a money printer? In my book Kim was kind of a Internet hero for a very short time. He seemed flaky, he would create very simple web sites and not update them. In retrospect it fits with his persona, he's a starter not a finisher. He's a real life Eric Cartman and I'm impressed with his tenacious attitude towards breaking the law ever so slightly. I wish I had some of that. I don't think he's a terrorist though, that's just a fake label that FBI put on him to make it seem like they were doing something important; "look at us we're fightin' crime & stuff". Nice video. Cool to go down memory lane. I never used Mega I think I used Direct Connect at the time since I had fiber optics in my apartment (Bredbandsbolaget for any Swedes out there).

Management knew he was coming and we had extra staff on specifically for it. Dude came in for the midnight launch, brought several copies of the edition that came with the drone. Took photos with everyone and had a chat. Considering our age, most of the staff were pretty, shall we say, knowledgeable of Megaupload. So it was a bit of fun.

The entertainment industry consortium is well-known for overreaching the amount of money "lost" due to piracy. They claim the full retail price for every download. In reality, people buy discounted copies, or wait a few more months to watch it included with a subscription, gather with friends for a group watch (splitting the streaming cost), or don't bother watching at all. That is, the amount of money they would have gotten had piracy not happened is a small fraction of what they are claiming.

just a question, isnt kim the same guy that paid the hackers 400 grand (lizard group) to just flip off and let him play some games on christmas eve?
@barsk111 ай бұрын
Yes, Also fun fact Kim is half Finnish and has citizenship here. His mother is Finnish. Hence why Mega Upload owner had been registered in Finland. Also Lizard Squad hacker Julius "Zeekil" Kivimäki is also from Finland and they both likely used Linux based operating systems which was made by a Finnish guy called Linus Torvalds.

2 weeks after the raid we spent a week moving somethings into storage and the rest to rubbish tip. You wouldn't believe the things the agents let us keep.. Even a car!

We moved his co-offender last year and his family (beautiful humble people) and they tipped me and my offsider $500 each! Unfortunately he was sentenced this year to 10years.

Okay there is some incorrect information here. New Zealand as a whole did not hate him, the government did, most of New Zealand actually loved him as he bought a large amount of capital to the country and helped with the economy
