Looks like it was registered through mailclub.fr. They’re offering .ga domains for €749.

i think the biggest issue is how hes been marketing it and how the press has been marketing it. If this was marketed at a secure way of transferring files (which is all it is) then it wouldst be getting as much heat from the feds as it is. Marketing it as a piracy tool presumably puts them in trouble with the law, as a file transfer tool it wouldn’t, well, they wouldn’t liek it but it wouldn’t be illegal.

i was hoping more like bribery but it is illegal in US, although you can do pretty much anything illegal outside…

I’m all for getting tv shows and films for free (until I get a job and can afford dvds/blu rays and also when uk channels buy all the great american shows that i love but have no other way of watching so it’s their own fault really that i have to download them they should be happy that people are enjoying their shows) but kim dotcom is a prick

Ya would hardly put bribing an African leader past the Feds

How he actually got a .GA domain in the first place alludes me as the registrant is inactive at the moment, and has been for some time.

Well, given Kim’s not-too-diminutive size, it’d be a team of Navy Walruses……

Well, maybe a “special” team.

Are you expecting a team of Navy Seals to be on the way to New Zealand shortly?

More pressing issues like making sure that nothing interferes with the aid they receive from the US you mean?

I thought a country like Gabon would have more pressing issues they should be concentrating on, like food and water and clothing.. before can pass judgements on complex moral philosophies and laws.

It makes sense. First Obama becomes the President for a second term and Mega goes down.

I wonder if someone gave Gabon a little nudge nudge wink wink to make this happen
