Law and Order Old World 1, New World 0. The four defendants in the landmark The Pirate Bay case, taking place in Sweden, have all been found guilty, and sentenced to one year in jail. They also received a hefty fine of USD 3.58 million to 17 American media companies, among which are Warner Bros. Entertainment, MGM Pictures, Columbia Pictures Industries, Twentieth Century Fox Film, Sony BMG, Universal, EMI, Blizzard Entertainment, Sierra Entertainment, and Activision. The defendants have already stated they will appeal the decision.

Glad I'm not the only one to see the fascist connection. 100% agree, *collusion* between corporation and states is just fascism -- especially when dissidents are sent for 1 year in prison.

Is this a strong word? Yes. I regret they deserve it!
