I think it sucks that all ~65,000 other people have their data seized because of him, though.
The fellow running the service ran it on a German hosting service (https://www.hetzner.de), and not his bedroom. Full cooperation was provided by everyone, following in the letter and spirit of the law.
It just really sucks that the German authorities took it upon themselves to take the entire thing.
I also manage servers from my bedroom. If I set up a cock-based email service from my bedroom, I wouldn't expect to receive the same credibility as the likes of gmail or hotmail.

If I telecommute, I manage hundreds of servers from my bedroom. I don't see the issue here.
