President Obama Chats About Kim Dotcom

President Barack Obama and New Zealand’s Prime Minister John Key talked about Megaupload founder Kim Dotcom before a meeting at the East Asia Summit in Cambodia. The leaders didn’t comment on what was said during the private chat, but Dotcom took up the news to forward a request. He asked Obama to give him and his colleagues a green card so they “can come and help Hollywood to build a proper Internet business.”

President Obama arrived at the East Asia Summit in Cambodia yesterday to discuss key issues with other world leaders.

While the criminal case against Megaupload and Kim Dotcom are not listed on the agenda, the topic was brought up in a private discussion Obama had with New Zealand Prime Minister John Key.

Key confirmed that the topic was brought up in conversation, but neither he nor Obama commented on what was discussed.

“I’m not going to go into those details. I had a little chat to him, yep, about a whole range of issues. I have private conversations with people all the time,” Key said.

Kim Dotcom got wind of the news and took the opportunity to ask his prime minister to forward a message to the U.S. president.

“Ask Barack Obama to give us green cards so we can come and help Hollywood to build a proper Internet business,” Dotcom jokingly asked New Zealand’s prime minister in a tweet.

“Dear friends, please ask Barack Obama to embrace innovation and Internet freedom in his 2nd term as President,” he later added.

This is not the first time that Dotcom has sent a message to Obama. He previously told TorrentFreak that the U.S. president should intervene in the ongoing case against his company, and reassure the public that Internet freedom and innovation are his priorities.

“Obama should consider helping millions of Mega users to get their files back. Obama should motivate Hollywood to innovate and adapt to today’s light speed Internet environment instead of freezing innovation and progress,” Dotcom said at the time.

This message was also conveyed in the “Mr. President” track Dotcom released earlier this year.

Meanwhile, the U.S. case moves forward.

Yesterday Dotcom’s lawyers officially submitted Megaupload’s request to dismiss all charges against the company. The motion in question was submitted last month, but has been properly filed now after the Judge granted the lawyers’ motion for leave to file.

With the renewed motion to dismiss, Megaupload hopes to have the criminal charges against it dropped, at least until the U.S. Government finds a way to serve the company. This may take weeks, months, or may not happen at all.

If the motion is granted the charges against Dotcom and his co-defendants would still stand. But with Megaupload’s assets unfrozen they would be able to build a better defense, whether they get a green card from Obama or not.

    “His” bitch? You mean Obama’s? Because in this case, Torrent Freak is (unintentionally) covering up the fact that the president shouldn’t be getting personally involved in a criminal prosecution or extradition case.
    
    In Obama’s own words in another criminal copyright case: “the president doesn’t get involved with prosecution or extradition decisions” at 2:15 http://youtu.be/bW7bNbOFr9U

      To the person who said: “Until we know more all hes done is talk about it, and theres nothing wrong with that. (at least in america).” Actually, there is something wrong with it, even in America. No matter what was said, the fact that they even talked about Dotcom gives the “appearance of impropriety” that undermines the faith in the criminal justice system. Without faith in the system, we have (even more) serious problems, and that is why it is the President’s stated policy not to get personally involved in criminal prosecutions. Think Nixon trying to get involved in his own prosecution (an even more obvious case) – the president shouldn’t get involved in the prosecution of others (it looks like he is bending the system for political advantage).
      
      The fact that we *don’t* know what was said is even worse, we are left to guess and allow doubt in the system to fester. If they were only discussing Dotcom’s taste in black sweaters, then they could say that without any fuss. But that they don’t tell us – hmmmm. Sounds like they were talking about the criminal prosecution and extradition – and they shouldn’t be.
      
      And, seriously, there is enough other stuff to talk about. The only thing they could have talked about with respect to Dotcom is the prosecution and extradition.
      
      Without knowing what was said, but knowing something was said, how can anyone be left with an impression other than Obama applying pressure or somehow rewarding Key for his efforts.
    - Aussie Bob
      
      I agree with shogun there is nothing wrong with Obama and Keys talking about such a high profile case when they meet up, in fact it would be strange if they didn’t. What was said may be a different ball game but we don’t know that, and even if the details came out the conspiracy nuts would be saying they were putting pressure, patting on the back etc, even if the comment was how the case has fomented bad public image of US justice in NZ
    - MadocComadrin
      
      How is it improper for the president to be involved to a certain extent of any judicial action? In fact, there are set rules about how the President can be involved. Checks and Balances exist for a reason.

  it’s not so important want he says, it’s important what he’s planning to do.
  If he cancels his plans, then that’s something to be concerned.

i think it would be a wise move for Obama to realise what is going on here. the entertainment and pharma industries are taking control of the US, and getting plenty of help from powerful politicians. if he is fully aware of the scale of what is happening, then he will ignore what anyone/everyone says and thereby is endorsing it. if he is not fully aware of the extent of what is going on, he needs to enlighten himself and realise that the rest of the world are not in favour of what is going on, that are not appreciative of ‘bully boy tactics’ the US always uses and are fed up of the US only doing things, through force, threats and bribes that benefits itself. sometimes listening is the best option, particularly before jumping in with both feet!

      There’s no more money to be made and they know this very well. They do however also know that if they don’t manage to completely eliminate the alternative distribution models that aren’t controlled by them, distribution models that an increasingly number of creators and artists use from the start these days, distribution models that the pirates have made popular, they won’t make any money at all in the future.
      
      Alternative distribution models is a threat to the Mafiaa in the long run, not piracy.

    > “Obama’s justice department is doing what is right and enforcing long existing laws.”
    
    No, they are doing what’s wrong, as in damaging the US economy and the values in it’s constitution, by enforcing outdated laws that shouldn’t be there in the first place.
    
    What i wanna know is why you want to damage the US economy, and what you have against the free market?
    
    > “Were pirates making free copies from existing but patented automobile tire designs and tire industry revenue began to sag at the same moment in time as tire piracy, (Napster anyone?)..”
    
    You do realize that the meaningless recording started to sag because they tried to sell something which fewer and fewer people wanted or needed? When an industry sells useless products that holds no economical value, of course they sag. And that’s not the responsibility of the pirates, that the responsibility of the recording industry.
    
    And you do remember that they refused to sell DRM free MP3 files for almost ten years? Now tell me, when you refuse to sell what the customers wants for ten years, what usually happens to an industry?
    
    > “..a correct law enforcement would move against tire piracy in any country, too.”
    
    You do realize that all the other IP monpolies don’t regulate non-profit use? So it’s perfectly legal to manufacture your own tires according to a patented design.

      The particular Anon commenter i responded to advocates rape of human beings as a punishment for operating fully legal torrent sites. He brought that topic to the discussion of music and video piracy.
      
      He has never backed down from his statement, on the contrary he has on several occasions repeated his astonishing opinion.
      
      I feel absolutely no shame over bringing attention to what he himself has openly advocated, when discussing what he himself openly advocates as a appropriate response to piracy.
      
      Do you think that people who openly advocates rape of human beings as a punishment for piracy shouldn’t have to be reminded of what they believe in?

Obama will NOT do anything. He has to please his lord and masters of the MAFFIA. As for filing a new request to ask for the case to be dismissed this case will NEVER be dismissed. The Judge will stand by the same reasons given as last time. If Kim Dotcom is never extradited then I wouldn’t be too surprised that the US will issue an international arrest warrant for him to face the charges against him.

delafield44

Obama said that the way it works is that “the president doesn’t get involved with prosecution or extradition decisions” at 2:15 http://youtu.be/bW7bNbOFr9U

I guess that means only when the prosecution is going well. But when the prosecution and extradition is going badly (from the perspective of the US), then the president personally applies pressure on foreign countries.

Or were Key and the President talking about something other than the extradition and prosecution of Kimdotcom?
- Guest
  
  The prosecution MAY be going well in the US but in NZ the prosecution to get Kim Dotcom extradited is not going well at all. The NZ court has so far ruled illegalities to what the prosecution has done in NZ and it would seem that extradition will be refused unless the prosecution can come up with something to overturn all these illegal actions caused.
  - delafield44
    
    Right, that is what I meant, thanks. The prosecution isn’t going well in NZ and therefore Obama is getting involved. Diplomatic pressure. But the president of the US should not be involving himself in these things because it should not be a political matter, it should be a criminal matter decided on the merits of the case. Just more proof that this is all politically motivated.
    - Guest
      
      Maybe Obama has realised what a complete mess this Megaupload case is and wants to avoid getting involved and tangled up further with the whole affair and trying to stay clean.
    - Whatever
      
      What they say and what they do are two different things, including Obama.
      
      As for undoing the illegal. The issue being discussed by the prosecution, politicians and so on isn’t if they will extradite him. The only thing they are doing is preparing a new fantasy where all illegal behaviour fits. Funding terrorism would be a good starting point.
      
      One could say that this isn’t possibly. However interpol is also a political organization already used for US and Japanese interests alike instead of catching actual criminals.

Violated0

Since President Obama did not listen to Kim Dotcom the first time then I am already sure that he will not this time so sorry Kim but no green card due.

No doubt this NZ and US discussion was about that the Mega trial could soon fail with their charges dropped or more likely extradition denied. I expect he also said if the US wanted to avoid this they need to get their act together when the FBI and DoJ are currently just fucking things up.

I don’t think they have any other option here when Prime Minister John Key can’t screw over the Justice system just to get him extradited. Even had he tried this would only go badly for him and they would not go against the Court ruling.

So what happens between now and the extradition hearing in March 2013 could well reveal how this case will end.

President Obama is promoting a futile and self destructive delusion when he tells Americans that they must protect the existing Copyright regime because it is the singular National “Industry” that will distinguish, empower, protect, and enrich America.

Indeed, the American future WILL depend on the Intellectual and Imaginative resourcefulness of the American People; but, American Intellectual Property does NOT have to be structure on the basis of the existing Copyright regime.

Other sovereign states will NOT abide in perpetuity by a regime that denies their Citizens access to Ideas.

In fact, we must consider that perhaps it is a universal public domain of free flowing Ideas that might most empower, enrich, distinguish and protect America.

Didn’t Hollywood donate lots and lots of money to Obama? I think Obama helping out Kim Dotcom would be very difficult considering his financiers for the election. Also considering Biden has a close relationship with the MPAA head from what I’ve read on Torrentfreak previously.

He did it wrong. Mr Obama prefers you to enter the country illegally, then he’ll arrange for you to stay legally.

He asked Obama to give him and his colleagues a green card so they “can come and help Hollywood to build a proper Internet business.”

John Keys should go.. I never liked him hes a duche only in power for his own ego and not for the people.. John Banks is another
its all about money… he made his miillons at other peoples loss as well.. buyign and selling arms gold and anything for a buck.. its called commodities
but the sad thing the opposite gov is no better.. I think all govs should be replace and people given a real time tablet to vote on daily issues and have people that actuall action them on our behalf instead of half witts that cheat and lie and get away with it.. cos they above the law
go to jall Johns…

“I’m not going to go into those details. I had a little chat to him, yep, about a whole range of issues. I have private conversations with people all the time,”
With all due respect, sir, when you’re talking business you don’t get to have private conversations. Everyone in a democracy needs to know how their democratically elected leaders are taking their country.
