Megaupload down

It's not just you! http://megaupload.com looks down from here.

QuoteOne of the world's largest file-sharing sites was shut down on Thursday, and its founder and several company executives were charged with violating piracy laws, US prosecutors said.

An indictment accuses Megaupload.com of costing copyright holders more than $US500 million ($A480.70 million) in lost revenue from pirated films and other content. The indictment was unsealed one day after websites, including Wikipedia and Craigslist, shut down in protest at two congressional proposals intended to thwart online piracy.
