So if the government allows all these files to disappear, won't their evidence against MU kind of disappear as well?

Also, if copyright and trademark infringement is the same as theft, and these replicable copies are the same as property, then how is torching people's legitimate files any different than the government just burning your house down because your neighbor had a few pot plants or something like that?

Anyhow, this is why I wish Ron Paul had a chance.

I'm sure the FBI have copies of the files that infringe copyright, if the files disappear MU won't have any evidence that they were running a legitimate business.

The FBI aren't deleting them, MU's bank accounts have been frozen so they can't pay the hosting bills, so the hosts are naturally going to wipe the servers and rent them to someone else.

Just because the website is down doesn't mean that the files have disappeared.

What makes you think the company have not handed a copy to FBI?

What about the Norway Gunman?
He's looking at most to something like 26 years or just Psychiatric Care and he killed 77 people

Life isn't always fair. That's why we make the best/most of it.

Your assuming they don't own their own servers. An operation that size probably does.

Should've gone with hostgator in that case.

It sounds like they don't own the servers in Virginia, but the owners Carpathia Hosting are still not going to delete the files yet.
