The Pirate Bay On Track To Be Banned In the UK?

redletterdave writes with this excerpt from the International Business Times about the fate of the Pirate Bay in the UK: "Swedish filesharing website The Pirate Bay may soon be blocked in the UK after a London judge ruled that the site breaches copyright laws on a large scale, and that both the platform and its users illegally share copyrighted material like movies and music. In addition to finding legal fault with The Pirate Bay and its users, the British Phonographic Industry also wants all British ISPs to block access to The Pirate Bay in the UK."

Let's ban child phonography.... cut off their customer base, and drive the bastards out of business.

Too right. I can't take any more of those godawful boy bands.

I stopped at "exponentially". The misuse of mathematical terms is inversely proportional to the intelligence of the writer, and it literally makes my blood boil when people do it.
