    From the article:

    It's actually not clear if The Pirate Bay is legal in Sweden. There are one or more laws* that the prosecutor could use. We will just have to wait for one or more court rulings.

    * One possibility is the electronic message board law.

    Will there be more druguse if it's legal? + Legal + Cheaper - Legal (some might like the thrill of doing something illegal) - Drugdealers currently have a lot to gain in recruiting new users - Easier to quit if it's legal
