- mindjiver 14y agoWell, it seems tingsrätten and hovrätten did not agree with that statement.
- loweschmidt 14y agoThey where however, sentenced for assisting in copyright infringement. The problem however, is that usually you need a crime to be an accessory to, to be sentenced. No copyright infringement sentence has linked to the judging of the TPB founders.
- paul9290 14y agoIndeed no copyrightable material is hosted on TPB, but they have made a huge profit (millions) and continue to do so offering links to material the masses want. I dig the TPB (it's a great story Hollywood should ironically create a movie about) as it has forced the content industries hand to change and offer legal alternatives. I'm just not sure if it's right they have and continue to make millions off it?
