Eight characters is about the length of an ordinary password. Exactly how far does blame extend, then? I've seen more than a few people who honestly believe that keeping a URL secret somehow protects the content.

I can understand if you're mad about copyright infringement, but why does that person who recorded all of their child's sports matches deserve this merely for using MU? They were sharing their own movies with the rest of the team, true, but that's all the more reason to use a site like that in the first place.

All my premises have been that 1) MU was one of the top piracy sites on the net, 2) profited from piracy, and 3) was designed for spreading piracy.

Instead of edge-cases, how about a common one? Or does that not count?

So yes, if any of the above is true, what happened to MU was good.

And as far as that loaded question about the person losing his child's sports matches... You can frame it however you want, it does not change the facts we know about MU. MU was most likely a criminal enterprise.

Whatever you think of MU, what happened to the people who lost their files is bad. After all, it will not affect the pirates one bit. There are plenty of copies of whatever they're infringing, but there probably aren't any other copies of those sports matches.

You can call that "loaded" if you like, but it actually happened.
