I wonder if this was a setup by Kim Dotcom to make him look like he's our savior and fighting for the good, since he had bad publicity on him.

They never stated they were tough....now makes you look like a pu**y who wants to beat up nerds

Obviously, diplomacy works. I recommend that the U.S. Government gives it a try.
