Kim Dotcom

Despite the serious legal implications for content sharing, the best thing so far to emerge from the Megaupload shutdown has been Kim Dotcom (Yes, the website’s owner changed his surname from Schmitz to DOTCOM) and the photo above that best illustrates his Hype Williams rap video lifestyle: “He surrounded himself with glamorous women and fast cars bearing number plates such as “GUILTY”.

As a tofu lover myself I’m outraged.
