Get a clue!!!

 

Ok *reads on whole situation.*  Huh, Swedish police arrest guys who run torrent site on the internet due to mass copyright infringement, trialed, found guilty.

Wow, downloading content you didn't pay for is a crime, learn something new everyday.  If your all so confident that its not, go tell the police you do so. 

 

 

If you had a clue you would know they were freed of thoose charges, in fact they were dropped on the first day, as I said get a clue.

To help you out I can inform you that we have a thread on this very site with the links to and about the trial go and read it and come back.

1-It´s not illigal to run a torrent tracker, it´s not illegal to link to torrents and thats all theese guys are guilty of nothing else.

2-They haven´t uploaded anything, it´s the users that do that IF you want to go after them them I am with you there is the problem not TPB or their crew.

3-Hell if I search for a movie on TPB if will find it in their Index by soeone that has uploaded it there, but if I do the same on google I get mass links to all kinds of torrentsites that I never even heard of with the same movie. Now if TPB is quilty of what they were found guilty of (not what you thought they were found guilty of) then every search engine on the net that points you to a torrent are just as guilty.

Nice try though let´s see if you can handle a second round.

 

4-Edit: At the bolded you forgot to add the police that were payed of buy the Hollywood people ran the investigation and arrested the TPB crew.

 

1- So why were they arrested under mass copyright infringement?  Oopsie thats what torrents on there site was!

2- Funny did you know its a crime to be in possession of stolen goods?  Which funnily enough there site was swimming in it.

3- Sadly no, because search engines are what they are, search engines, most popular sites are picked up.  Pirate bay is a torrent tracker, torrent searcher, torrent hoster.  Which breaks copyright infridgement laws. 

4- Paid for a job well done, they nabbed them!

You do realize that The Pirate's Bay doesn't store any files that would break copyright correct?   You realize that the people doing 'illegal' things are the users not the Pirates Bay correct?

 

That would be like the state or city that you live in being responsible for,  You riding one of the public transportation buses and then proceeding to commit a crime after you arrived at your destination.   This is called trying to blame anything and everything and not focusing on the real issue. 

You don't have a clue what you're talking about.  Torrents don't break copyright "infridgement" laws at all.  Torrents themselves aren't illegal in anyway.  Just like a .txt file isn't illegal.  Of course if you stored thousands of peoples personal information and then used it to your advantage that .txt file would be illegal now wouldn't it?

 

 

We might as well nab Microsoft for Copyright "infridgement".  After all,  they allow us to connect to the internet and then proceed to allow us to steal things. Right?      Actually,  Mozilla, Netscape,etc?  I think we should bust those internet browsers.  I've witnessed, downloaded, copied more things from these browsers that are breaking copyright material than any other method combined.  Let's bust those dirty thieves. 

 

Torrent sites are not illegal.  The content that some people seed  is.   Know that there is a difference.  Knowing the difference,  is crucial to even be remotely intelligent in this conversation.
