"السيد غودوين، وغيرها الكثير، وتستخدم لتخزين الملفات القانونية، ولقد تم الطلب إلى المحكمة للحصول على المساعدة منذ عام 2012. وليس من العدل بعمق له أن يكون لا يزال في طي النسيان بعد كل هذا الوقت،" EFF لكبار الموظفين النائب ميتش يقول ستولتز.

One Megaupload user has had enough of this cat and mouse chase between the US authorities and Kim Dotcom and has asked the court to help get his files back.
When Megaupload was raided more than half a decade ago, millions of users lost access to their personal files. Dotcom and his team has tried over and over to get authorities to return the servers, to no avail.
Kyle Goodwin, a Megaupload user, has been trying for the past two years to get the files returned to him and now he has urged the Appeals Court to intervene on his case. Goodwin operates a sports video company in Ohio and he used Megaupload as part of his business, storing large videos he created himself on the servers the authorities seized in the raid, TorrentFreak reports.
Goodwin has so far filed over half a dozen requests since 2012 hoping to get a court to find a solution to his problem. Despite getting help from the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF), Williams Mullen law firm and Stanford's Hoover Institution, there's been no success thus far.
Not the only one affected
Now, they're taking their chance at the Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit. They are trying to point out that the government's seizure of Megaupload servers continues to affect innocent users. If the response is favorable, it could pave the way for other users to get their files back.
"Mr. Goodwin, and many others, used Megaupload to store legal files, and we’ve been asking the court for help since 2012. It’s deeply unfair for him to still be in limbo after all this time,” EFF’s Senior Staff Attorney Mitch Stoltz says. "The legal system must step in and create a pathway for law-abiding users to get their data back.
There is a risk for the data to be lost if the case takes much longer.
