A shocking verdict!


Pirate Bay founders found guilty of breaching copyright laws!
There is no sense in this verdict - this is akin to allowing the victims of paper cuts to sue the makers of paper (or trees even!).

Pirate Bay merely gave people the facility to share files (not necessarily copyright material) - the fact it was used for what some consider illegal purposes has NOTHING to do with Pirate Bay!

Does this ruling now mean that Holywood can sue the inventors of peer-to-peer technology (or e-mail, or the internet) because they helped facilitate sharing files?!!!! Is Bill Gates next on the hit list!?

Absolute nonsense!!
