And where was it seized from? His locker or did they take some VM-specific
equipment? The site wasn't hosted by VM so they're not in any trouble,
despite what the OP is probably trying to imply.

Who was the OP? Gonz, the man who rabidly hates VM. No surprise there then.

So the police visited his desk and checked out his computer. They did
***not*** raid VM as your headline exceptionally misleadingly implied.
Heck, you can't even lie properly.

If they did that then they raided some small part of VM. He was an
employee and not a contractor from outside brought in temporarily?

It was an exaggeration i think.
