Alas, poor megaupload! I knew it, Horatio: a site
of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy

Where be your gibes now? your gambols? your songs?
your flashes of merriment, that were wont to set the table on a roar?

Yeah. We can tell our grandkids (and grandcats) that we've been there when World Wide Web War I started. It's absolutely not acceptable that they shut down foreign websites, arrests foreign nationals not on US territory and people who, like the TVshack bloke, haven't even committed a crime by their own country's laws! Argh! This must be stopped, it's getting ridiculous.

It's utterly outrageous. Looks like #anonymous are on the case though! The scale and speed of their DDOS is pretty jaw-dropping. I'm still glued to twitter. Better call it a night now though. School run in the morning :}

It will only get worse. Governments and big businesses want to get their hands on the internet, and we must prevent that. I really hope that people's voice will be heard and common sense will win, but it's not very likely...
