JAVA-BASED STORAGE OUTFIT Wuala has merged with computer peripheral maker Lacie in what is being seen by some as an attempt to create a cloud-based storage service.

Wuala flogs 'social online storage' using a Java application to store and back up photos, videos, music and other types of content online which are then shared.

French company Lacie makes external storage devices and other products and is well-known to Mac users for its external HD and optical drives. 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?
