GUILTY

should other torrent sites start worrying, or will The Pirate Bay get their appeal?


What happens in Vegas stays on Youtube. I also stream on Twitch from time to time.

I only use torrents for Speedruns.

So I don't care.

Assisting distribution of copyrighted material I think.

The smashing? For surrendering to international political pressure from the MAFIAA.

There will be a reversal. Under Swedish law, they did nothing wrong. However, all the corporate fatcats and the politicians in their pockets are going to be pushing now for an International Copyright Law. The notion of that happening anytime soon is laughable though, since every country does (or does not) use a variation of their own, meaning there would be so many technicalities to iron out that it's just too much of a headache and financial burden to care.

Not that they can do anything to people who've already got software and other goods from the website.

don't worry, every movie i've ever seen involving pirates being held in prison ends with them making a daring last minute escape before execution.

Except for the ones who left their IPs in the logs.

There once was a man named Gottfrid Svartholm, who was king of pirating! He had games, music, and shows beyond your wildest dreams!
Before they hung him from the gallows, these were the final words he said:

"My fortune is yours for the taking, but you'll have to find it first!
I've left every Torrent I've ever owned...in One Piece!"
