Hello!
I have been given the job by Anakata(the boss) to spread the word that v2 of The Pirate bay is now open!
"Due to revolutionary code and layout TPB have become alot faster and more userfriendly then before. Also the tracker have become internationalised and now supports 10 languages plus Swedish.
The userfriendlines and the new functions on The Pirate Bay 2.0 will introduce the BitTorrent protocoll to the wide public. In the contrary to the large media companys we se it as our duty to spread new technology to as many as possible says Fredrik Neij( another of the The Legal Threats guys, Respect man :01: ) on The Pirate Bay.
Besides the new code and layout The Pirate Bay have gone through an extensive Internationalisation process. The Site have support for 10 languages besides Swedish and the translators are continously working on more. Users from any of the 11 language regions will autmatically get their respective official languange as default.
Today the technological development often goes faster then the cultural. But neither language barriers nor the Copyright industrys war on technology will stop the people from taking part in th new technology and culture, says anakata on The Pirate bay
Further more new categorys have made searches easier and more effective. In a near future this will mean a greater freedom for subscribers on the Trackers RSS-Flows. And The Pirate Bays team of developers are continuing to work on new functions to simplify life for users all over the world!!.
The Pirate Bay Team!!
So happy filesharers just jump on and share the hell out of the Copyright Industry!!. :naughty: :01: :boxing: :yahoo:

This is from a couple weeks ago: http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=stor...edia_sweden_dc
Let me quote the whole article though:
How the hell is Mr. Fredrik "Pirate Bay" Whatever-his-last-name-is gonna keep running that site? Seriously...Quote:
STOCKHOLM (Reuters) - Sweden's parliament approved a law on Wednesday that bans the downloading of copyrighted material such as films and music from the Internet after being singled out for criticism by Hollywood.
Sweden had until now allowed downloading of files, while uploading, or putting material on the Web, was illegal.
Actor Morgan Freeman, in a Reuters interview, recently cited Sweden as an example of a country where illegal peer-to-peer file-sharing was a growing problem.
The Swedish parliament's decision, which comes into effect July 1, aims to change that.
"The decision means that a clear ban has been introduced against downloading music, pictures and other material on the Internet for private use without the copyright holder's permission," parliament said in a statement.
Anyone breaking the law can be ordered to pay damages.
The Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA), which represents the U.S. film industry, had in March hailed a raid by police on a company hosting Internet servers as a major blow against piracy in Sweden.
The MPAA said the authorities seized four computer servers -- one reputed to be the biggest pirate server in Europe -- containing enough digital film and music content for up to 3-1/2 years of uninterrupted play, the organization said.
It added that authorities in Scandinavian countries had been reluctant to take such action in the past.
The MPAA says the film industry loses $3.5 billion a year to videotapes and DVDs sold on the black market, but it has no estimate for how much Internet piracy costs the industry.
The new Swedish law allows people to make one copy of a CD for personal use and to make copies of newspaper articles.
I guess we'll see.
Here's some commentary on this: http://linuxreviews.org/news/2005/02...to_go_sweeden/
And the last guy to comment there says the Pirate Bay will not be shut down on July 1st.
Personally I don't think it'll make it past September. Unfortunately the Swedes are now the whores of the MPAA and entertainment industries (and the USA, more importantly), like so many other European countries.
Who wants to buy the fax TPB staff sent to Web Sheriff in response to legal threats

I do wish that PB would add some more filtering capability. That aside though it is much faster than before.
