IF Sopa comes into force.
If Forumotion is in the US.

"Hours later, Megaupload's fans turned the table on the feds. "Hacktivist" collective Anonymous set its sights on the U.S. Department of Justice and apparently knocked the agency's website offline."

Does taking down their websites actually affect them at all?

If megavideo was a site run by someone who wasn't well known then I'm sure it would be up under a different address soon just like adthe.net or rojadirecta were after the Fed got to then.
The problem is that Megavideo's CEO is the rapper Swizzbeats which is the reason why the company has so many high profile endorsements. If megavideo comes back after this while he still owns the company and the Feds find out, he is screwed.
R.I.P Megavideo.

Let us have 72 minutes of silence, followed by a 30 minute waiting period before we can continue our mourning.

Hollywood's top lobbyist and former Sen. Chris Dodd is threatening to cut off campaign funds to President Obama's re-election effort because of anger over the White House appearing to side with tech companies in a bitter fight over anti-piracy legislation.

I think it's good what they're doing. You wouldn't walk into HMV and steal a DVD would you? Just buy DVD's and CD's you peasants.

That's not what SOPA just does or capable of.

Jesus Ahly this wasn't SOPA this investigation was going on way before the SOPA Bill was even created. Yes SOPA would make it much more easier for the government to do this to sites around the world, but this wasn't SOPA or PIPA and anyone trying to make the connection are idiots

My mate was reading something on the internet and told me. I know they were arrested in New Zealand so he may have got mixed up with that. But I'll try and find it

It wasn't run out of just Auckland it was also run out of America allowing the Feds to do this, the founder of Megaupload isn't there as well.
Run out of Auckland = Dead.
