Kim Dotcom Outs Mega Teaser Site, Finalizes Domain Name
hypnosec writes "Kim Dotcom has let out more information about the launch of Megaupload's successor Mega, which he claims will be 'bigger, better, faster, stronger, [and] safer.' Mega is currently looking for partners willing to provide servers, support and connectivity to become 'Mega Storage Nodes.' The prime requirement, according to Dotcom, is that the servers should be located outside the U.S. and that the companies should also be based outside of the U.S. For this reason, Dotcom has decided that the new service will be launching with 'Me.ga' domain name."
Kim,
Thanks for fighting the good fight.
Yes!
And its not going to be "America's" internet.
We are going back to our old ways of isolating ourselves from the world because of the greed of a very few.
While Kim may be greedy and potentially an asshole, he's going to win and is playing by rules far more legitimate then our current IP circus.
To those of you in the MPAA, RIAA, and software, mobile phone, and ISP industries. You cannot fight this. Learn and adapt or you will fail while people like Kim refuse to lay down and prosper.
I'm sick of hearing about the US projecting its bad laws outside its jurisdiction.
Give me Classic Slashdot or give me death!
Just wait until it is the UN dictating the rules.
They are already lining up "blasphemy" laws restricting free speech and eyeballing a global Internet Tax.

In theory, yes - though it'd take some time to be implimented. It'd be a big step though, as it would undermine all trust in the DNS system, and that is something the US can't afford to do right now. The UN is already pressing for a more multinational management - an abuse of power by the US would only prove them right.
