As an aside, how could Dotcom be a real name?

Not sure who exactly you're talking about but Mega Upload was shut
down by the FBI, courtesy of the NZ Police. It's been a complete
farce and the extradition of Kim Dotcom is slowly grinding its way
through the courts. It's sounding less likely to succeed as time
goes by.
Not that Mr Dotcom is squeaky clean himself... but I think the
balance of public opinion is on his side.
The why it was shut down is immaterial to the discussion. The point
is, it was shut down, and anyone who had data stored on his server
either lost their data or were very inconvenienced.
Anyone who is depending on cloud storage should be looking at this as
the potential end result of all their carefully uploaded data.

Don't lose heart! They might want to cut it out, and they'll want to avoid a
lengthily search.
