Pirate Bay Operators Stand Trial On Monday
Anonymous Pirate writes "Operators of The Pirate Bay stand trial on Monday in Stockholm. The four defendants from the popular file-sharing web site are charged with being accessories to breaking copyright law and may face fines or up to two years in prison if found guilty. The four defendants have run the site since 2004 after it was started in 2003 by the Swedish anti-copyright organization Piratbyrån. The Swedish public service television announced that they are going to send a live audio stream from the trial. It will be broadcast without editing or translation."
>>> It will be broadcast without editing or translation." .. because for a second there, I thought you were going to give me some watered down version compared to what I could get if I took a crash course in ruddy SWEDISH!
The Pirate Bay does not make their uploads. The users do.
From TFA: "Premises connected to The Pirate Bay were first raided in 2006. The complexity of the case led to delays in charges being filed and the case being bought to court."
I would like to call Pirate #4 to the witness stand Your Honor...
Pirate 4: Yaaarrrr?

Ok
[it] is pointless, like suing the gun companies if a murderer killed some one [in a car] with one of their guns.
It will be broadcast without editing
YAY!!!
or translation.
Oh:( I do hope some Swedish and English speaking geeks take on making a transcript and translating it. To describe my Swedish as bad would be an understatement. Non-existent is closer. I might as well be watching the Muppets (Swedish Chef).

Don't listen to the free streaming!! Everyone knows the Internets aren't free! And pirated content always comes with installers in weird languages. If you listen to this you are pirating the Internets, and FBI agents will come to you. Buy cable TV and get your news straight please.
More like I had sex with your mother.
Go away, Dad. You're drunk.
I can't find any rape or pillaging! :(
Change is certain; progress is not obligatory.

Swedish judge: bork bork bork!
What, this is illegal now?!
Ubuntu should be illegal too. Since Microsoft likes DRM and the MPAA likes DRM so the MPAA likes Microsoft and Ubuntu only exists to hack DRM. Am I getting closer?
Hey guys, I found the latest windows iso with google just like the parent poster mentioned! I decided to post it here for everyone else. I hope /. does not get shut down for it.
This new version is pretty slick, much much faster than previous versions, and it seems incredibly stable, unlike any version of Windows I have ever used before. Only problem is the command line makes no sense. Must be that new powershell thing? Anyways, here is the download:

Try to hack my 31337 firewall!
Well, all they have to do is find oil under Stockholm and manufacture a few links to Al Qeda, then that problem would be solved...
Understanding the scope of the problem is the first step on the path to true panic.
