Hoi, What effective claim has been made against Kim Dotcom and, THAT is your argument. Thanks, GerardM
The claim is that knowing that items were copyright violations, they waited until a DMCA takedown came in before removing a link. Additional to that they also, along with their partners, generated many links to the same content, that is the criminal conspiracy.
The mens reas, or the wilfulness as it were, starts with the knowledge of the violation and the decision to do nothing until a copyright claim arrives. That could become a very expensive policy.
But hey, not my arse on the line.

Hoi, When you go the way of comparing to Kim Dotcom to make a point, you will have to recognise that the government has been shown to act illegally. Consequently your argument is without real merit. Thanks, GerardM
The first thing that is wrong with the above is that copyright holders are not the Government.

Isn't that the attitude that got Kim Dotcom into trouble? http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2013/12/us-unveils-the- case-against-kim-dotcom-revealing-e-mails-and-financial-data/
This is a typical trolling. Comparing Megaupload with Wikimedia Commons? Don't you have better (constructive) arguments?
I'm comparing your attitude that rather than fixing the known copyright
issues upfront one should await complaints before addressing, to be similar to that exhibited by megaupload. An attitude that is essentially one of "We'll get away with it for as long as possible, until someone complains." Meanwhile falsely advertising that the content is free to use.
