12:13 AM EST 		The MegaUpload debacle can serve as a great big, flood-lit warning:

"AVOID THE CLOUD!"

Because it takes only one scofflaw, one idiot cop, and one ignorant judge, to ruin the day (or month, or year) for a whole lotta people. People whose only "crime" was using the same service/servers as someone on the MafiAA's hit list.

(CEO's and CFO's especially need to heed this warning.)
