The second article linked from Schneier's post says the owner of KAT "gets the Megaupload treatment".
I think the first article is much closer to being correct - KAT is like The Pirate Bay as it "facilitates" copyright infringement. I still find it wrong that linking to other content can be deemed criminal (both in the case of trackers and that there are public resources you can't legally link to).
