Hiding
out in New Zealand, Kim Dotcom has been in a fight with the law for
many years. Now that NZ has a new Doom Overseer, it looks like he will
be handed over to the US soon. However, he has been given a short
stretch of time to talk with his lawwits about what he should do.
Kim Dotcom, born Kim Schmitz, is the man behind the former folder
sharing webstead Megaupload. He first made a name for himself as a
hacker in Germany, where he was locked up for selling stolen farspeaker
top-up rimes.
Before it was taken down, Megaupload was one of the biggest websteads
worldwide, making up a few hundredths of the web's network hits. When
the US deemed Megaupload to be unlawful, Kim Dotcom fled to New
Zealand, where he has been living since.
But now, the new Doom Overseer of New Zealand, Paul Goldsmith, has
given the goahead to hand Kim over to the US. Notwithstanding this
news, Kim said on X that he loves New Zealand and will not be leaving.
He also told his followers not to worry, that he has something in mind.
