This website got shut down because of it's potential ability for Piracy... I will get a link to an article or 2 once I get back to my computer..

Will they go after the users?
Because.....
I had some stuff on it as well. For the most of it I had the copyright but there was one little file.....
I must admitt, I do feel a little worrried.

Personally, I doubt they'd go after the individual users. However, if they did, I imagine it would mainly be the super users/premium users who were doing the mass uploading and linking of copyright material. I would not worry too much with your limited copyright uploading.

I heard about that. The website which my dad is an administrator on uses MegaUpload.com. I'm not sure how exactly it was affected, but still...
Kecleon is the greatest! Don't you agree?

Every part of the website that used MegaUpload.com stopped working.
