The Pirate Party Is The Pirate Bay's New Host
Site pops back online after Hollywood injunction against German ISP
by Karl Bode Tuesday 18-May-2010 tags: legal · Fileswapping · world
After yet another attempt by Hollywood to take the Pirate Bay's service provider offline earlier this month, it appears that the Pirate Bay has come back online -- this time with a particularly curious twist. The BitTorrent portal's new host is none other than the Swedish Pirate Party, who say they're now offering bandwidth in order to "stand up for what we believe is a legitimate activity." "When other politicians appoint committees and try to pass the buck, the Pirate Party instead takes responsibility and acts with its own resources to protect the nation’s information safety and fundamental freedom of speech," said the Pirate Party in a press release.

Watching the MAFIAA try to take down The Pirate Bay is like watching a human swat at flies... without a fly swatter.

To me it looks like they have a bazooka (ACTA) and keep destroying everything else but the fly.

well if you also read a cbc article about how swedens police are now saying that due to insane copyright laws the REAL criminals are too hard to catch, thus you can extrapolate that HOLLYWOOD is aiding and abetting pedophiles and terrorists because they are making everyone a criminal and YOUR govts are helping this problem

SO THINK OF THE CHILDREN = MAKE p2p legal expose the terrorists and pedophiles against hollywoods wishes

Absolutely Genius

Good luck trying to shut down a political party's network access.

For the first time in years i'm actually looking forward to some future entertainment to come out of Hollywood. I've got my popcorn ready for the political and media circus that this will (hopefully!) make.

embrace peers

when is the MAFIAA going to realize
that p2p is the best way to distribute content ever.
so they don't own software mechanics, big deal.
if MAFIAA members offerred superiour or bonus content
by p2p, nobody would bother with the amature loads,
and they'd still manage to make money by embedding
ads, and saving on distribution infrustructure.

when will this industry stop paying lawyers,
and start paying p2p service providers!

"Pirate Party" says it all

Just like the name of The PirateBay web site, the Pirate Party's name says all I need to know about them. A party that is against law & order. A party for anarchy. A party that should be outlawed.

Long Live TPB!

I agree. These guys are great. I especially love the blogs and the "Legal Threats" area.

I hope they're around for a darn long time. It's too often that I buy a piece of software, HATE IT, then I'm stuck with it. I'm sure plenty of people felt that with Vista. No trials, no demos, you have to buy it to try it, then you're stuck with it.

Me, if I try it out and I like it, I buy it.
