I'd be tempted to substitute "FBI" for "Mafia" in the above sentence ;) They raided his house with armed police and helicopters, and completely destroyed his business, all based on an accusation. http://tvnz.co.nz/national-news/kim-dotcom-s-lawyer-police-raid-mansion-unlawful-4861214 http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=10811178 BTW there were plenty of legitimate users of Megaupload, as with any cloud storage provider. But the feds won't tell you that.
