The problem is, it seems a bit fucked because of what it is. People don't really think of this as a crime. In reality though, he's technically stealing someone's property and distributing it. If someone overseas was mailing anthrax to people, no one would think it was odd if the US tried to extradite the person and make them stand trial. But because it's for something most people seem as petty, they're confused by the response of our government.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not in favor of the US trying to police the internet, I just can't say they're really wrong for trying to take down the pirates.
