As I said in the previous (and outdated) thread on the subject, that Megaupload was involved in conspicuous aiding of copyright infringement is not legal grounds for the Fed to ignore the Constitutional mandate for due process. There are clear legal guidelines in such cases that the Fed is required to follow, regardless of what you think of Megaupload. Tomorrow it may be a website you care about. The Constitution is a thin enough shield against tyranny as it is; we don't need the Fed weakening it further by ignoring it.
