In a breaking report users of the recently shut down MegaUpload are claiming litigation
against the Unites States own FBI. Even though it is a known fact that some were using
MegaUpload for piracy it is also a known fact that hundreds of thousands at least were using
the site to store personal data and data that he or she needed to share for work related
projects.
From author Eresto at TorrentFreak:
My question has to be; why, knowing the type of site that MegaUpload was, would
anyone trust putting critical information that one does not have anywhere else on the site?
Now due to the fact that many people are unsure if they will in fact get their information
back have teamed up with Pirata.Cat in an effort to bring litigation against the Federal
bureau of Investigation in the United States.
For further research you can click the references below and then draw your own conclusion
to how you believe this should be handled. Personally I have to form an opinion that; if a
person is going to trust putting important information on sites such as MegaUpload then he
or she has to expect loosing the information at some point. Right? Wrong? Lets here other
opinions.

From author Eresto at TorrentFreak:
In most reports following the MegaUpload shutdown, the site is exclusively portrayed as a piracy haven.
However, hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions of people used the site to share research data, work documents, personal video collections.
