Megaupload shut down
#50
Addressing the thread topic:
Megaupload was shut down by a multinational operation with existing laws; such a large operation sorta illustrates how we have existing systems to combat big offenders (so we don't need SOAPDISH and PIPER :P)

Megaupload's owners are millionaires and they knew they were hosting illegal content, and knew they were making money off hosting illegal content. They found many internal emails from employees like "ooh, look what this guy uploaded".
