Incoherent Thoughts

So..let's get this straight. The Pirate Bay trial. All defendants got time in prison and fines, despite flimsy prosecution. The decision was even worded so that Google is apparently a pirating company in Sweden now. Fast forward to today, a couple hours ago. News flash. People had looked at the background of the judge in the case. He's a big media crony.
.......what a surprise. After the police corruption case (big media gave a job worth one million to the police leading the investigation concerning TPB), it should be no surprise that the judge was compromised too.
It's like they're begging for Piratpartiet to become the biggest political force in Sweden. The judgement itself already raised quite enough hell, but the latest news pretty much guaranteed that EU will have some politicians from Piratpartiet in quite important places shortly. Even our local Piraattipuolue got a pretty damn good boost in supporters. And there's the Copyright Day shortly (too bad that I'm stuck here in the backwoods, there's a gathering in Tampere as well as Helsinki and I'd really love to be there) and that's bound to get Piraattipuolue even more supporters.

Tl;dr - stop corruption. Defend your right to privacy. Support your local pirate party.
