"Now, that's what 3FN has been charged for. And here lies the
problem. They have been accused of very serious crimes, and as a
result... they were sent bankrupt. There is no way a hosting
company could survive a downtime of twelve days (that's how long
the temporary injunction is). 3FN could be guilty or innocent. Or
maybe a mixture of the two. In any case, they were executed without
a court case, without a jury, without a way to defend themselves.
This is the part that disturbs me.
"There /was/ a better way to handle all this. They could have
shut down 3FN for 24 hours, and made sure that everybody knew why.
They could have taken an image of the hard drives they knew were
incriminated, and let them reconnect the network after that."
