Big Swedish Filesharing Server Seized
SmugJerk writes "Authorities are continuing to apply pressure on Sweden's filesharing community amid the trial of several principals of The Pirate Bay filesharing site. Today they seized a fileserver containing about 65 terabytes of files, corresponding to around 16,000 full-length movies."

When any progress is made whatsoever towards relaxing the copyright laws that almost every single human being in almost every single country agrees are out of control, you might have some sort of logical argument.
Until then, fuck it.
