On: Megaupload: A Lot Less Guilty Than You Think

>If you upload it to MU, then cry to someone else when that same criminal enterprise gets shut down and you lose the one copy you had.

> Your right weren’t violated. Mine were.

Actually, mine were. I bought a copy and you destroyed it.

You keep claiming that I deserve to lose the copy that I bought because Megaload may have paid someone else to upload copyrighted content. Exactly how was I supposed to know this? (Hint - at a mininum, you need to point to a public announcement by Megaupload to this effect.)

Since you like analogies, look at it this way...

You drove to the Ghetto and threw your only copy into a crack house. That crack house got raided, shut down, sealed off.

You took that copy away from yourself. It's your problem. Not mine. Cry to someone else about your rights.

How exactly was your average user supposed to know that MU was anything less then legitimate?
