These claims, reported to the Swedish police, focus on general cybercriminal activities committed against the popular torrent site, by Scandinavian subsidiaries of many major media conglomerates[.]"

"A blog post on the site by administrator brokep states that they have been going through the emails from the recent MediaDefender leak, and have obtained proof, from them, that they are being targeted by several companies. Ten companies in total have been reported to the police, the post goes on to say, for charges of infrastructural sabotage, denial of service attacks, hacking and spamming.

"We’ve been tracing spam back to them for at least over a year, ” said Pirate Bay Administrator brokep. “We’ve tried talking to MD for quite a while. Finally they called back yesterday but was not willing to talk about us having to report their clients to the police for breaking the laws they’ve broken. Now we see no other alternative but to report these incidents, as they don’t seem to stop and as they are really serious crimes they commit.""

Will be quite interesting to follow this.

If it won't go through I guess the companies atleast learned a lesson.

TPB files charges against media companies

Thanks to the email-leakage from MediaDefender-Defenders we now have proof of the things we've been suspecting for a long time; the big record and movie labels are paying professional hackers, saboteurs and ddosers to destroy our trackers.
While browsing through the email we identified the companies that are also active in Sweden and we have tonight reported these incidents to the police. The charges are infrastructural sabotage, denial of service attacks, hacking and spamming, all of these on a commercial level.
The companies that are being reported are the following:

Twentieth Century Fox, Sweden AB
Emi Music Sweden AB
Universal Music Group Sweden AB
Universal Pictures Nordic AB
Paramount Home Entertainment (Sweden) AB
Atari Nordic AB
Activision Nordic Filial Till Activision (Uk) Ltd
Ubisoft Sweden AB
Sony Bmg Music Entertainment (Sweden) AB
Sony Pictures Home Entertainment Nordic ABStay tuned for updates.


That's on TPB
