BitTorrent is used for plenty of legit things, so it falls to law enforcement to shut down the actual USERS. Megaupload doesnt have that kind of shield, unfortunately.
Megaupload certainly can (er...well...could) be used for plenty of legitimate things. Whether it actually was or not is a different story. Comparing it to Bittorrent silly, though. Bittorrent is a protocol. An open and well-documented protocol with many clients that use it. The actual hosting of torrents is completely separate from development of the protocol and clients that use the protocol. No single entity controls Bittorent. You can shutdown sites that host torrents and go after users, but that's about it. Saying 'shut down Bittorrent' is like saying 'shut down FTP'. It doesn't make any sense. I think you missed my point....I was saying that Megaupload is screwed and rightly so because everything passes through their hands. When the law comes knocking, and there's an entity they can go after, they go after it. When it comes to BT services, it's then on the users.

Bought it yesterday. Really fun. Have a Sith Warrior up to 10 because the other Sith classes didn't really interest me. People bag on the character creation but I thought it was pretty good. Game runs smooth on high settings and things are fun, but I don't quite get how auto attack works. It seems to swing once or twice then let up. Not a big deal because I'm mashing the rage generating swing when low on rage anyway, but still curious.
Overall really enjoying it.
If I recall correctly, there isnt an auto-attack. It's all you.

I hate Kaiden, always complaining about his biotics hurting him because they're old and going boohoohoo woe is me. Maybe I misunderstood the character, but now, whenever I see him, that's what I think.
I kill Kaiden for the sins of his father. That father being the original Bioware sad sack of tears and lamentation, Carth from KOTOR. When I first played Mass Effect and heard Carth's voice coming out of Kaiden's mouth and saying some eerily similar shit, I knew we weren't gonna get along. :P Oh my god. Dan, you have officially confirmed WHY I hated him so much, and I didnt even realize it. Fucking Carth......

Liz, all those places sound awful.
Vancouver and Victoria. Those are okay, because they're like a cooler version of Seattle. But it's still Canada :P

I wouldn't be surprised if they just trashed everything after the investigation and flipped everyone else the bird.
I think that's in their S.O.P. when it comes to taking down basically ANYTHING. On the Megaupload topic. Eh I'm not happy the FBI are involved in this. At the very least you work with local entities and appeal to them. It sucks that legit users got shafted, but with the majority of users are using it for pirating shit, well....that sucks. BitTorrent is used for plenty of legit things, so it falls to law enforcement to shut down the actual USERS. Megaupload doesnt have that kind of shield, unfortunately.
