Seems the Government is not in possession and they say they don't want the data. However, they are in possession of the megaupload funds and won't release any for the purchase of the servers by megaupload.

Well, it was megaload's published TOS wasn't it? The data was stored on that basis and megaupload has ceased operations ... Next time read the TOS Users were cautioned "not to keep the sole copy of any document on MegaUpload.com

all backup sites have similar conditions in their TOS

that designed to protect the host from liability if the content is destroyed

it does not protect third parties from liabilities.
