IMHO I can't see what the privacy/freedom issue is. The terms & conditions for megaupload's end users will state what is allowed and what isn't. Then, it surely can't be that hard for megaupload to automatically search their database of files on their servers for key words that might flag an issue. Complex sure, but doable if there is a will. Then, if someone is found to have uploaded something bad, just take it down. If a user repeat offends, ban them from the site. The site survives, good users can stay and illegal file sharing is reduced.

Whatever way you want to put it, it all boils down to big brother taking away everybody's toys because a few kids are naughty, and the toys we are allowed to keep are the budget lowest cost/functionality versions.
