Back in April after the four involved in the Pirate Bay scuffle were declared guilty of helping to break copyright law, the judge who gave the verdict, Thomas Norstrom, was found to probably be biased due to his involvement in several pro-copyright groups. After a long, cold, hard bout of deliberation, the Swedish Court of Appeals has actually found Norstrom unbiased, something rather surprising. This means that the charges against the guilty still stand.

Oh yeah? You rob a bank in the US for the amount of money equal to the average amount people would pay for pirated material, you go to prison. That ruins your life. You steal something in Saudi Arabia, they chop your hand off. That ruins your life.
Are you sure there are places in the world where theft is forgiven that easily?
