Yeah but megaupload was legit but was still shutdown despite being massive

They had their servers seized, but were later returned and the service came back as mega.nz, legit and all.

Yeah uh no. that's not the whole story, Mega is a new company, the difference is it's encrypted so the theory was they'd have no way to scan for pirated content. Mega was also seized people think, it's unclear who or what currently opperates it. And Kim Dotcom's extradition case is ongoing.
