Say what you want about Kim Dotcom, the guy is a marketing genius.

Before Megaupload he was virtually unknown out of tech/finance circles. Now my mother knows who he is. Albeit, she calls him Dotcom Internet.

No, he was not. He was, among other things, known as a fellon in a pump and dump scheme around letsbuyit.com. http://attrition.org/errata/charlatan/kimble/

You're suggesting that he was very well known for that scheme? Not so sure about that...
