New Zealand Supreme Court says Kim Dotcom search warrants were legal

Re: I don't get it

Dotcom has always maintained that he took all measures legally required to remove notified infringing material, and indeed co-operated with the feds and the MPAA in doing so.

But he also said it wasn't reasonable to expect him to identify such material - that's the job of the copyright holder. The matter has never actually come to trial, because he'd have to be extradited first.

It's not really a matter of the Kiwis 'dropping their pants' for the US. The article is a bit snide about his funds. He ran out of money to the extent that his NZ attorneys stopped representing him... coincidentally, that was when he began losing legal struggles in the Court of Appeal and Supreme Court.

Whatever other funds he has are subject to freezing orders so he can't use them to defend himself.
