The Pirate Bay decision leak ‘a bit LOL’
p2pnet news view MPAA | RIAA News:- Everything the entertainment cartels touch turns to …
Well, you know.
Now, “it’s a bit LOL,” The Pirate Bay spokesman Peter Sunde, aka Brokep, posts on Twitter.
“It used to be only movies, now even verdicts are out before the official release.”
Not only but also, “According to leaked information from the court we lost (got the news last night),” he tweeted.
“Trustworthy source as well.”
But, “Stay calm,” he says. “Nothing will happen to TPB, us personally or file sharing what so ever.
“This is just a theater for the media.”
Mind-boggling, eye-popping annual revenues
The lamescream media (and Mitch, left, and Dan) are all a-flutter because of the supposed movie industry, record label, ‘win’ over The Pirate Bay.
Seven multinational conglomerates, whose monthly earnings run into the billions of dollars and would quite literally keep the same number of third world countries in food for four or five years, sued three young men and a supporter.
These unimaginably huge corporations with mind-boggling, eye-popping annual revenues and employing thousands of people around the world, claim they’re being “devastated” by Peter Sunde Kolmisoppi, Frederik Neij and Gottfrid Svartholm Warg and their .torrent search engine.
The corporate press corps doesn’t even blush at reporting a court case brought by the movie and music industries against four (4) people, whose combined incomes wouldn’t keep the cartels in coffee and donuts, as a triumph.
“We welcome the court’s decision today because The Pirate Bay is a source of immense damage to the creative industries in Sweden and internationally,” said the RIAA’s Mitch ‘The Don’ Bainwol.
Actually, he didn’t say that. But he soon will. Or something very much like it.
Rather, the statement came from Dan ‘The Joker’ Glickman who’s currently acting as temporary mouthpiece for Hollywood’s MPAA.
‘Very well written’
In this last example of the reverse entertainment industry Midas touch, the Swedish District Court which sentenced TPB4 to a year in jail each and fined them SEK 30 million ($3.59 million), now wants local cops to, “investigate their own people” because the verdict was reported without their permission, says TorrentFreak.
Will the leak affect the decision?
Stay tuned.

“Jazz is illegal. Probably. Isn’t that a shame? Well, at least if the soloist does not pay a licensing fee to the composer of the tune he just quoted in that eight-bar solo. And as for basing an entire song on the famous chord progressions taken from Gershwin’s I Got Rhythm â something hundreds of jazz greats have done? Forget about it. Rap is illegal too…”

Funny how the verdict was leaked, sounds like the Movie and Music Cartels bought a judge or two.
If I was the TPB I would appeal the decision and demand a public inquiry, justice was not severed regardless of TPB being guilty or not..
Another note to be considered is if TPB is guilty then so is Google…….
