Just going to megaupload.com, you will see the FBI notice right on the page with the laws they broke. Or a simple browse on an article about MegaUpload should reveal the details.
@Littleczr How exactly does your file sharing equate to the embezzelment that DotCom did? Yes MegaUpload got taken down as part of the investigation, but it still doesnt change the fact that DotCom is charged with more then piracy. Perhaps you need to read up a bit more on the situation before you post. It will save you the time and frustration you must feel when everyone looks at your posts and wonders if you even know what your typing about.
