You know, it's this kind of citizen journalism/reporting and outcries that makes me think the US has a high chance to get back on the right track in a couple of years.
There are so many entrepreneurs and businesses, and people are so eager to be actively involved in something that when something like this happens, a shtickstorm tornado rises against the powers that be and it's very hard to quell it.
This article and other similar pieces need to get into the mainstream media, and then things will start to change - just like they did with SOPA and other laws.
I've seen no other country where media holds such a power - the UK and the rest of EU, Russia, China and Japan, they're all much worse in these regards and yet you don't hear this much of an outcry over a few seized domains/servers or even physical property.
Hopefully the big corporations that lobby everything to their will and rampant elements in the US government will be brought back under control - the sooner, the better...

But we're talking about seizing domains, and domains is where all this pesky citizen journalism is happening. Could go either way.
