The Pirate Bay Attacked by The Cowboy, The Policeman, Van Morrison and so on
"Let’s not forget Prince"
"The Pirate Bay had it good before the IFPI decided to stick its nose in the Peer-to-Peer file sharing tracker’s business. When the piracy assist lawsuit was slugged in the Swedish site’s face, it joined a vast slew of other similar legal actions being already aimed at the world’s biggest BitTorrent tracker.
Who can forget the king of all midgets, dwarf among dwarves that went on a suing spree last autumn and did not forgive even the most fanatic of his fans? Prince is at it again, only this time he’s got The Village People vocals backing him up. Some reports say that Chet Baker’s back catalogue and Van Morrison music copyright holders might join in this attempt to stomp a foot in some innocent site’s face.
As claimed in numerous times, The Pirate Bay hosts none of the copyright-free material, but gets sued for making it easy for others to share it. There’s a "users are to be held accountable for any and all of their actions" clause somewhere in there, but nobody seems to care.
Prince went so far out of his Purple way that he even sued an 18-month-old baby for dancing to one of his tracks and being video recorded, later to end up on Google owned YouTube. This find was most likely a stroke of genius from the minuscule pop star’s hound dog Web Sheriff, that follows any leads that might direct to infringing copyrights and legal action.
The lawsuit to be thrown against The Pirate Bay is said to be several million dollars worth of damage, according to John Giacobbi of Web Sheriff, quoted on Swedish news site E24.se. That’s all hunky-dory, but so far there has been nobody actually suing. Might they be waiting for the perfect opportunity to deal the deadly blow, much in the way Microsoft waited with Yahoo?"

Own what ground will they sue TPB, when most of the 'evedence' they have were collected illegally?
