Very clever to arrest him <i>after</i> the elections. Before the elections this would have been a much bigger issue and possibly would have gained votes for the Swedish Pirate Party resulting in more seats in the European Parliament for them.

Gottfrid Svartholm is currently being held in solitary confinement in Denmark, Peter Sunde is arrested in Sweden. I thought these countries were like role models.

OK so I never knew Peter, but I knew Gottfried. And I live next to Laos and Cambodia. Full disclosure: I am presently in Luxembourg, solidifying legal situation for cryptographic currencies, and we are kicking ass.<p>Just this morning I was reading Peter&#x27;s blog, including the Swedish parts, and although I don&#x27;t have the background on the (dis)agreements between the various TPB founders, I know they are all legit people.<p>The fact that Peter got smacked-down is clearly a result of his political positioning, and nothing to do with anything else.<p>The reality we are living in is this: <i>keep quiet, shut up , and you are OK. Start talking like I am now, and they target you</i>. Well, fuck you US authorities. We are fucking free, and we will keep talking, and we will fucking send you to the graveyard of anachronisms that you belong in.

Too bad he didn&#x27;t made to the EU Parliament.<p>That makes two out of the three in jail, which is very saddening. I wonder what will happen to Frederik: I doubt they will just let him be. They are beating three to scare millions.

Why would Polish police take part in a raid in Sweden?

I use google&#x27;s &#x27;filetype:epub&#x27; to download ebooks, whether or no they have &quot;copyright&quot; or not. When will Larry &amp; Sergey go to prison for me doing that?

It looks like he was the Pirate Party candidate for European parliament in recent elections, but was not successful. It also means, that his immunity from prosecution as a candidate has just finished and the arrest was possible.<p>Quote from the article: &quot;In Finland, where Pirate Bay founder Peter Sunde sought a seat, counting the Party secured just 0.7 per cent of the vote.&quot; <a href="http://www.theregister.co.uk/2014/05/26/european_voters_make_pirate_party_walk_the_plank/" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.theregister.co.uk&#x2F;2014&#x2F;05&#x2F;26&#x2F;european_voters_make...</a>

Skåne! He should have headed to Södertälje they never would have found him there ha. In all seriousness, this is heck of a way for old Sverige to stay in the press don&#x27;t you think? (and this is coming from a yank who loves the place like a second home)

I wonder what impact this will have on the development of <a href="https://heml.is/" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;heml.is&#x2F;</a> …

So what&#x27;s the URL now? Is it thepiratebay.org, or thepiratebay.se? It jumped around so much that it&#x27;s hard to keep track.

Aftonbladet is one of the worst tabloids in Sweden a cant say i trust any details in their articles.
