The Pirat bay est fermé le temps de leur procedure devant la justice suedoise
mais bon torrent reste a mon avis la meillieure alternative ... tant qu'on ne DC++ pas hehehe
voila leur communiqué :
Prepare for mudwrestling… Soo…
As many of you already know. We are heading for a trial this spring.
It’s the result of the raid against us in 2006 when the cops seized 200
servers(15 belonged to us) at our isp. The investigation took 20 months
(cops + servers with linux and “fulkod” is a bad combination).
This blog is where we will write about everything surrounding the
trial. We expect it to last for years, since it’s ruling will be
appealed either by us or by the Mpaa/Ifpi. During this time, The Pirate
Bay will continue as if nothings happened. We will grow bigger, better
and develop new cool projects!
Our enemies in Hollywood know this already. They know that a court
ruling won’t stop us. They know that silly legal threats won’t stop us.
We believe they are using this process to spread as much dirt about us
as possible. To make filesharing look dangerous and illegal.
Expect the months around the trial(s) to be dirty! Expect our enemies to spread some nasty lies about us!
This will not be a battle of right or wrong. It will be about who wins the debate in media.
Today, with a seemingly good timing, the tabloid Metro published an
article about childporn on The Pirate Bay. Headlines said that we
refused to remove torrents containing child porn and that the police
had tried to contact us, with no result. The truth? The torrents in
question were scans of dressed kids, probably from a clothing catalogue
or something. But the damage was done and we can only imagine who took
the initiative to this article.
Let us once again clarify that we despise childporn, like every
sound human being. We have asked the police to cooperate with us on
this point, with various results. If you find anything inappropriate on
our tracker, please report it to us through our contact page so we can
forward it to the police for investigation.
Please understand that we have over 1 million torrents on our site,
it is impossible for us to search through them all. All of us have
regular daily jobs to go to. We depend on our fine moderators and
active users to keep the site clean.
So, once again. Keep your senses sharp, don’t believe everything the media feeds you. And keep seeding those torrents!
