I haven't seen anybody else cover the story.

Then that's a sign the credibility is a bit lacking.
Basically, in his position, Dotcom is free to spout off whatever he likes, he would have a hard time getting himself in any deeper. That does not mean anything he says is worth anything.

That's because there rarely is a story, there's just TorrentFreak whose business is pandering to digg (once upon a time), reddit, hn, etc and the people on them who want to believe they're saving the world one pirated movie at a time.
The really sad part is it works just as well on hn as it ever did on digg.

That's because Torrentfreak is willing to make a huge full-page story with a linkbait title specifically written to rile Reddit up instead of actually reporting the story.

I don't think there can be neutral coverage of this. Everybody is on one side or the other. Dotcom, before MegaUpload's shut down, was already a polarizing figure. Now, he is even more polarizing because of the way everything went down.
When the MegaUpload stories begin to blur into politics is when I just stop reading and caring.

Well, if this actually turns up like Kim says it is, then it WILL be a story (right?).

#10the interesting thing about megaupload as i understand it is, that even though they are protected by the digital millenium copyright act, there was something different in their service. they try to prove that they were knowing that copyright infringement did take place?
so as i understand megaupload, there were many many links pointing to the same failes, as they wanted to minimze same uploads, meaning that they got takedown notices for links rather than content. in a nutshell: they removed links instead of content afaik, and there they differ from rapidshare and others... can somebody help me out if this is the case? (i never used megaupload but as i understand it that was there working model)
