    Kim Dotcom: The US Government is Wrong, Here?s Why

    http://torrentfreak.com/kim-dotcom-t...es-why-120326/

    it appears as if most of the "smoking guns" against mega upload are just like the "smoking guns" against youtube.

              The good news is that the damage to that industry is already done. Has anyone added back those features and started paying for traffic generated by user uploads to trademarked material?

                  Yes, it all went back to normal for the most part. Though, some of the filehosts are a least a bit more amenable to work together to protect content that is being reported.

                      this is exactly what I was hoping for...an obvious pirate idiot who will rub a technicality in the face of the law and somehow get away....wind in the sails of SOPA/PIPA/ACTA...

                              It'll be interesting to see if the facts line up work his claims.

                              The Viacom vs. Youtube article is interesting because while the first half of the article makes clear Youtube was knowingly and deliberately profiting from large scale infringement, the second half says Viacom was uploading some of the videis it was complaining about. It sounds longer it would be an open an shut case for someone other than Viacom to sue Youtube - someone who wasn't uploading.

                                          might have similar issues

                                              Maybe. Having an attorney ask them to license promo videos and to sign a contract that would probably have them assume liability for infringement via their service isn't exactly a smoking gun, though. Big difference between talking about posting a trailer versus having whole feature movies stolen.

                                                  If anything it's known who he is now. What he looks like and personal details. It only takes one person with a vendetta and means to make his life a living hell or worse.

                                                              the money laundering charges are because he tried to convert copyright infringement money into clean host ad revenue money.

                                                              Take away the underlying copyright infringement and then he is only guilty if turning clean hosting ad revenue money into clean host ad revenue money.

                                                              replace viacomm with the doj and you have the exact same statement when i argued against the smoking gun in the youtube case.

                                                              With the screw up in the warrant a lot of evidence is now fruits of the poison tree.
