I closed this webpage as soon as a stupid minute long video advert for "airwick" started playing and I found the buttons to pause or mute didn't work! Overzealous intrusive adverts really turn me off... (Yes I know should be using adblock p

I can't believe that america is extraditing this poor guy for alleged "copyright infringement", doesn't he have any defence as a "service provider"? Never mind the fact that if anything his crimes were committed in the UK! ...shame on you O

I can't see Sky's lawyers taking very long to settle out of court, £1500 is a miserly sum compared to what the lawyers will cost them in the first place! Sky took his copyrighted video and broadcast it to the world et al., everyone could ha

Isn't this more "blackmale" than "bribery" (quotes intentional...) Unfortunately, either way, I don't think anything serious will come of this!

This article feels like the author is pushing a "megaupload was bad" agenda... They were paying for their bandwidth, along with all their users (legitimate or otherwise!), so what's the issue?
