    I don't understand what Megaupload could've done to prevent this.

    They swiftly remove violating content, which will inevitably appear due to their business model. They do not condone piracy, and comply with DMCAs.

    How does this differ from youtube? Mediafire? Or any website which unwittingly hosts copyrighted content?

    That the staff have been indicted is sickening.

    There's no point protesting SOPA. The USA is a rogue government and will do what they want regardless of a bill passing. The time to protest SOPA and PIPA is over, the time to protest the USA Government itself has begun.
