Pirate Bay Founders Lose Final Appeal

Posted by samzenpus on from the end-of-the-line dept.

therufus writes "Sweden's Supreme Court announced its decision not to grant leave to appeal in the long-running Pirate Bay criminal trial. This means that the previously determined jail sentences and fines handed out to Peter Sunde, Fredrik Neij, Gottfrid Svartholm and Carl Lundström will stand."

    All I have to say is that if there is a crack for every piece you write then a) you write bad software. Or b) you write wildly overpriced software. Sounds like its number two. So at the risk of karma I will say it this way. I see no value in your software. I would rather hear you say, 'Would you like fries with that.' than deal with overpriced software, (overpriced anything above $50)
    And even it isn't, this isn't that time any more. You will only make good money working for a big corporation. So quit whining. Software piracy is a mixture the we need to see phenomena, laziness and copyright infringement. (Piracy by definition involves water, I wouldn't use it any other way)
    So How about this, I don't care. The bulk of the populous doesn't care. So you can either accprct it as the cost of doing business, or get that nice steady govt job. I suggest number two.
