In the aftermath of the Pirate Bay verdict the controversy surrounding judge Tomas Norström grows bigger and bigger. Most recently, defense lawyer Per E Samuelsson sent a letter to the Appeal Court in which he explains that the younger generation has lost faith in the legal system because of the shady selection procedure.

Unlike other criminal trials in Sweden, the judge in the Pirate Bay trial wasn’t selected at random. Instead, he was chosen because of his expertise with copyright related issues. Indeed, as a member of various pro-copyright organizations, Norström is very involved (http://torrentfreak.com/pirate-bay-getting-closer-to-a-retrial-090511/) in the issue.

I admire the TPB guys more everyday. Not only did they stand up against some of the world's largest corporations for years (and making a public mockery out of them in the process), but now they are continuing to stand up for themselves and anyone else who would be bullied by the biased and corrupt legal system (worldwide) that is going after private citizens based on laws that were written for business-business rights.

I admire the TPG guys more everyday.

So am I. I hope this appeal will work out for them.

Fighting the system isn´t easy. All the best to TPB!
