File sharing website MegaUpload has recently been shut down because they were hosting copyrighted files and therefore participating in copyright infringement. This has caused other file sharing websites to shut down over similar fears.
I can definitely see the possibility of copyrighted files being shared on Ubuntu One. Does Ubuntu One have to fear the possibility of being shutdown at some time in the future?
