I couldn't find any documentation on the exact breakdown of the 12 of the 13 charges in this case that were approved for extradition, but here[1] is an article from 2017 that lists he is being charged with copyright infringement, money laundering, racketeering, and wire fraud.[2] It appears that the 1 that was thrown out was related to money laundering. That means there is still racketeering and wire fraud charges plus there could have been multiple money laundering charges in the original list.
This also doesn't include any of the shady behavior in which there were accusations of but weren't included in the legal case. Such as the staff of MegaUpload regularly rummaging through the files of users. That likely isn't technically a crime, but it is something that should certainly be frowned on by the HN community.
