When a techie stories makes it onto the radio 1 news, you know it is going to be a big story. As you may know, megaupload.com is no more, with a number of arrests of their team taking place. You could argue both for and against a website that lets you upload anything and leave it there. This side of the story however is not something that we are going to discuss here and now.
A thought that occured to us this morning while we read our usual news websites, is what happens to all those people that upload "real" data and information. Say someone wanted to send photos to their family in a far away place and used megaupload, will those files now be accessible or are they completely gone? Of course people should have stored this information in another place, and not just on a third-party website, but you can guess a number of innocent people and work life has been effected over the last 24 hours!!
