Their attempts to control internet information have not ended for good.
These people spent a lot of time, money, effort and resources to build up their control of the mass media. They will do everything they can to ensure their monopoly over the information the masses have access to is not contested.

Hurrah!

Well I suspect they'll make many changes before this happens (if it does happen), and even then, I suspect everybody would protest against it (including myself). I can also imagine Anonymous and the Lulz ship sailing in to save the day by launching strings of attacks, such as those seen just as a result of shutting megaupload down.
