Sydney (Austrália) O criador do site "Megaupload", Kim Dotcom, que é acusado de pirataria pelos Estados Unidos e está em liberdade condicional na Nova Zelândia, informou que lançará um novo e melhorado portal de downloads, que terá o nome de "Megabox".
Dotcom, detido em janeiro em sua mansão próxima à cidade de Auckland e que está à espera do início do processo que decidirá se será extraditado para os EUA, disse pelo Twitter que o novo projeto consiste em um serviço no qual os artistas poderão vender suas músicas diretamente aos consumidores.
O projeto, que foi idealizado alguns meses antes do pedido de extradição pelas autoridades americanas, será o "maior, melhor e mais rápido. 100% seguro", disse Dotcom.
Segundo o anúncio de Dotcom, o portal Megabox "desencadeará" aos consumidores da indústria da música acordos exclusivos com artistas dispostos a provar um novo modelo de negócio.
O anúncio foi feito por Dotcom, que há dois meses usa o Twitter para mandar mensagens. Poucos dias antes, a Corte Suprema de Auckland fez uma investigação destinada a examinar a operação policial que deteve Dotcom e outros diretores da Megaupload.
Paul Davison, advogado de Dotcom, disse, durante uma audiência realizada na sexta-feira, que a atuação da polícia na detenção de seu cliente foi "inadequada, de pura incompetência, duríssima, desumana e inteiramente desnecessária".
Segundo a versão do advogado, os agentes que interviram na operação arrombaram a porta da casa, apontaram armas para empregados domésticos e os obrigaram a sair da residência.
Imagens divulgadas pelo canal "3News" mostraram vários soldados das forças especiais do país descendo de um helicóptero e correndo até a entrada da mansão, enquanto um comboio de viaturas se aproximava do local.
O advogado destacou que os agentes trataram a esposa de Dotcom, então grávida, de forma desumana ao impedirem que ela cuidasse de seus filhos, que estavam em outro cômodo da casa.
Em defesa dos policiais, o chefe da Agência Contra o Crime Organizado e Econômico, Grant Wormand, afirmou que a ação foi planejada desta maneira para assegurar que todos fossem detidos, e para proteger as provas contra Dotcom.
Na quarta-feira passada, na primeira das três sessões dedicadas pelo tribunal a revisar a ação dos policiais, os agentes alegaram que agiram dessa forma porque Dotcom estava armado, era perigoso e tinha ameaçado atirar.
Dotcom declarou um dia antes, no mesmo tribunal, que a polícia fez uso da violência durante sua detenção, e que ele recebeu "chutes e socos".
As autoridades americanas afirmam que o Megaupload causou um prejuízo de mais de US$ 500 milhões (R$ 1,1 bilhão) para a indústria do cinema e da música.

Dotcom, arrested in January at his mansion near the city of Auckland and is waiting for the start of the process to decide whether to be extradited to the U.S., said via Twitter that the new design consists of a service where artists can sell their music directly to consumers.
The project, which was conceived a few months before the extradition request by the U.S. authorities will be "bigger, better and faster. 100% safe," Dotcom said.
According to the announcement of Dotcom, the portal Megabox "trigger" to consumers of the music industry exclusive deals with artists willing to try a new business model.
The announcement was made by Dotcom, who two months ago uses Twitter to send messages. A few days earlier, the Supreme Court of Auckland made an investigation to examine the police operation that arrested Dotcom and other officers of Megaupload.
Paul Davison, Dotcom's lawyer, said during a hearing on Friday, the police action in arresting his client was "inadequate, sheer incompetence, draconian, inhumane and completely unnecessary."
According to the version of the lawyer, the agents who intervened in the operation broke down the door of the house, pointed guns for domestic workers and forced them to leave the residence.
Images released by the channel "3News" showed various special forces of the country descending from a helicopter and ran to the entrance of the mansion, while a convoy of vehicles approached the site.
The lawyer said that the agents treated Dotcom's wife, then pregnant, inhumanely by preventing her care for her children, who were in another room.
In defense of the police, the chief of the Organized Crime Agency and Economic Wormand Grant, said the action was planned this way to ensure that all detainees were, and to protect the evidence against Dotcom.
On Wednesday last, the first of three sessions dedicated by the court to review the action of the police, the officers claimed that they acted that way because Dotcom was armed, was dangerous and had threatened to shoot.
Dotcom said a day earlier, the same court that the police used violence during his detention, and that he received "kicks and punches."
The U.S. authorities claim that Megaupload caused a loss of over $ 500 million (U.S. $ 1.1 billion) for the film industry and music.
