FABULOUS, just fabulous, story today over at the San Francisco Chronicle about a woman who recognised and helped apprehend another woman who had stolen her identity.

It's Mike Weiss's byline so let's not spoil the fun, but this story has it all:

A woman who turns detective and takes justice into her own hands!

A street chase involving cabs and buses!

An evil bank!

A purse full of cards… with the victim's name on!

Justice, sweet justice!

It's like a modern version of Hitchcock's The Wrong Man. µ

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?

Yes, companies should suffer an immediate death penalty upon being accused of copyright infringement.

Yes, the coppers said the company was breaking the law so it must be guilty.

No, the company and the people accused are innocent until proven guilty.

No, the company had millions of customers who have been harmed by having access to their data files cut off.

I don't care, I never used Megaupload anyway.
