The Pirate Bay on eBay ; )
p2pnet.net News:- Are you sitting comfortably?
Good.
Then we’ll begin.
The Pirate Bay recently celebrated the launch of The Pirate Bay 2.0 by posting a fake take-down notice.
Being nice guys, TPB sent a fax to “the notorious websheriff.com during the night between 1 and 2 June, while coding on version 2.0 of the worlds largest BitTorrenttracker”.
Here’s the fax.
Now it’s being sold on eBay as “your chance to own a already historic document”.
When we had a look at 5:03 PST, it had three days and 12 hours to go and the bidding had reached $61.05.
“That’s some piece of file sharing history!” says TPB.
No kidding.

The admins at #thepiratebay.org on EFnet can guarantee that this is the genuine fax. It’s the real thing. Whatever that is worth is up to the bidders to decide

“UPDATE: We gave away the latest fax to some fellow and he’s selling it on eBay! That’s some piece of file sharing history!” The fax is the real one.
