This whole mess could have been avoided if the sites and PPA actually took the right route in this. That is, leaving The USA Market in 2006, then fighting very hard to bring suits challenging the UIEGA’S legality in whole, while pushing for real regulation at the same time. The sites had ample time to do so. but choose to be somewhat apathetic in their efforts. So while it is somewhat bullshit, seeing that real criminals, such as many in the financial sector and WallStreet should be the ones prosecuted; FTP, PS, and AP brought this on themselves if you step back and consider everything that has gone on.
