no Swedish law is being violated
Unfortunately, Swedish courts disagreed
Not at that time. That came after the us government pushed the swedish government to do something and they in turn "strongly hinted" to the swedish judiciary system that they better do something.
And finally the sentencing judge socialised professionally with pro-copyright lobbyists.

It is quite interesting that American corporations harass everyone, not just us Americans.
I got together with the other Americans, and we're cool of you all want to do something about them.
🎶 We're all living in Amerika, America it's wonder bra ;P

That's like actually the next line though.
"Amerika, coco-cola, wonderbra"
Its the actual joke that they have all the same products.

20 years ago, Pirate Bay's response
Holy shit I'm so old 😭
20 years ago
Sees letter is dated 2004...
Why have you done this to me?
That's like 8 years ago.
...
Wait... crap. We are old.
I refuse to think of 2000 as anything but the future where will all have flying cars.
One day I hope to write a "go fuck yourself" email of this caliber.
If every peasant started treating his opressor like this, we might actually start getting results.
We would need all peasants doing it at once. One peasant doing it just means you get your head cut off, which unfortunately doesn't help.
Some truth in that for sure.
I was talking more about when you get a chance to dunk one these clowns and you can do without getting hurt or you are willing to take calculated risk. Do it!
Most plebs now either too scared or otherwise unwilling to some basic FAFO and this made owner class brazen
Piracy is one of the best tools to tell the regime to get fucked IMHO

The Darknet Diaries podcast made a really good episode about The Pirate Bay, telling the entire story, including funny stories like the responses to these letters, and interviewing Peter Sunde, one of the 3 founders. https://darknetdiaries.com/episode/92/
Thanks, you gave me a new podcast to listen to.
It’s one of my favorites! Also check out Search Engine, one of my favorite new podcasts with an amazing host. “What’s the best phone to do crimes on”, the latest episode, is excellent—Darknet Diaries covered the subject as well, but this goes into even more detail.
I also loved “Who’s behind all those spammy text messages?” but that one gets DARK.
IIRC, the US accusers even quoted US federal law at TPB in emails preceding this. They had probably just assumed TPB were US based and this response where how they found out.
I'm still salty about Sweden bending over about this, tho. Sovereignty is a lie.
Actually absolute bad-asses!

The hunt for the cofounders of torrent site The Pirate Bay was a lengthy game of cat-and-mouse, spanning several continents. In the end, Fredrik Neij, Peter Sunde and Gottfrid Svartholm all ended up in prison.
