The Pirate Bay Is Making a "Spectrial" of It

Posted by kdawson on from the step-right-up dept.

IDOXLR8 writes "The Harvard Law students defending accused file-swapper Joel Tenenbaum are doing their best to turn his upcoming trial into a media event. But when it comes to pure spectacle, they have nothing on The Pirate Bay. TPB is referring to the event as a 'spectrial,' a cross between a spectacle and a trial. They have set up a site where you can track their current location, complete with journal entries. The trial begins next Monday and features a live audio feed and Twitter translations."

    But I thought I had a right to watch Underworld 3 without having to pay rental fees at Blockbuster?

    It's better than mine, but then mine is mostly flames carefully disguised as possible insight. I explain that away by advising people that I hate the world, which may or may not include everyone in it.
