From file-sharing to prison: A Megaupload programmer tells his story | Ars TechnicaThe legal saga dragged on for three years. In 2012, Nõmm was first arrested by authorities in the Netherlands and placed under house arrest. Like Dotcom, Nõmm next spent a significant amount of time fighting extradition. But eventually in 2015, he voluntarily traveled to the US and was arrested in Virginia. Nõmm pleaded guilty to felony copyright infringement and was sentenced to a year and a day in a US federal prison.
A drop in the bucket compared to the grievous harm caused by banksters, none of whom saw a day of prison time.
