Duh, its evolution. You make it sound like a war theatre.

Most people wouldn't ever upload anything illegal directly anyway. They compress it, split it up and then put a password on the whole thing. Theres no way to tell whats in the files then. MegaUpload was already going way beyond DMCA by letting them delete everything per their wishes.
Either they created more bandwidth where there is none or this is really an announcement how their app can now do uploads in parallel. Woohoo! You finished the tutorial level, you may continue.
So what you're saying is that you should save the 10$ from the 15$ you pay for a Cortex and instead spend many many days to end up with a outlandishly slow solution?
I take it this is supposed to inspect network traffic, at some point you need some raw throughput.
You can claim your DUI was a mistake, a blunder, an oversight on your part, but that won't save you from a conviction. There apparently seem to be no such consequences when the government decides to shut down and possibly kill a business by suspending the domain.
Neat feature. In my opinion, they should go even further and make use of the information and inform the user, too:
"Your ISP (network administrator, ..) is intercepting and manipulating DNS requests. Do you want to use Google DNS instead?"
Comes in real handy when we need to have a "DnsManipulationDetector" in the future that checks if your DNS is actively censoring...
They have ruined security for everyone by allowing government agencies (they didn't even bother to setup a front) and other questionable entities on that list. The correct response is not to send out a nice letter asking everyone to please give up crucial business information, but to kick everyone off that list and start over.
Mozilla was compromised, not the CAs.
