MegaUpload, which was shutdown Thursday over allegations of copyright infringement, is attempting to get its servers back and get the website back online according to the company’s lawyer.
“The company is looking at its legal options for getting back its servers and its domain and getting its servers back up online,” Megaupload’s lawyer Ira Rothken told Reuters. “Megaupload will vigorously defend itself.”
MegaUpload and seven of its executives were charged on Thursday, and are currently being held by American authorities.
“It is really offensive to say that just because people can upload bad things, therefore Megaupload is automatically responsible,” Mr. Rothken said to Reuters.
Mr. Rothken was adamant that the company only offered online storage.
