Bad link, but found the article eventually
Authored by: Gringo_ on Tuesday, September 25 2012 @ 05:39 PM EDT

Had a real hard time navigating that publication to find the article you must be referring to. Sorry I can't post the link I found because it is just too difficult on this phone.

Anyhow, it was an excellent article, rich in details about the NZ government handling of the Dotcom case and how they bundled it so badly. However, I feel sorry for the NZ gov, as I believe they were thoroughly manipulated, misled, pressured and bullied by the US government. Now they have to answer to their own constituents as well as Kim Dotcom for their excesses.

The GCSB (NZ equivalent of CIA) spied on him at the behest of the police in the
weeks leading up to that ridiculous raid. But as he is a NZ resident this is
illegal (rather like the CIA spying on a US citizen would be). Oops! Since the
GCSB is under the direct authority of the Prime Minister this has become very
political.

Kim Dotcom meets Keystone Kops

I'll blame Geeklog for breaking the the first link, but it's always possible the
new Herald is blocking
deeplinks from outside NZ.<br>
I made up the Keystone Kops tag, but digging into the print edition I see two
well known
commentators also using the term. If these links break, search the link term at
Herald's front page.
