While I'm sure the MPAA and the government want to go well beyond what I think is reasonable enforcement of copyright, the more I read about the case against Megauploads, the less sympathy I have for their side.
Someone tweeted likening it to going after the postal service or UPS because someone sent a pirated DVD through the mail. From what I can tell, what they're accused of is more like someone operating a rent per hour motel and trying to say, "I just rent the rooms, I can't police my customers do," while having video cameras in the rooms and passing around names of pimps and prostitutes that use those rooms.
