I'm pretty sure it's the timing that's making people flip their shit over this. It happened one day after the "internet blackout" protest which made people connect it to the SOPA and PIPA issue even though, truthfully, the owners of MU actually had done some legitimately sketchy stuff. On the one hand, it's a bit unfortunate that SOPA opponents are publicly supporting men who are guilty of racketeering, but on the other at least it made some people sit up and take notice of how fragile the internet really is.
