Kim Dotcom taunts US government through Twitter

Megaupload founder Kim Dotcom has been poking fun at the US government and law-enforcement via his Twitter account.

Dotcom’s teasing and taunts are in response to the US legal system attempting to try him for copyright infringement.

The tweets allude to the US government trying to seize Megaupload’s online files, although Dotcom says that he’s “working on changing that”.

The tweets are with regards to a legal battle Dotcom is facing, where the founder and his associates are said to be responsible for around $500 million in damages.

Dotcom is currently on bail after his arrest in January, although he must remain within 80 km of his home in Coatesville, New Zealand.
