In a few days time Global Gaming Factory is supposed to have gathered millions of dollars in funding so they can acquire The Pirate Bay. But according to Wayne Rosso, the former CEO of Grokster who was involved with GGF recently, this is unlikely to happen. Meanwhile, The Pirate Bay is giving GGF a week before they cancel the deal. Last month the BitTorrent community was shaken up when GGF publicly annou… Continue

Damn it!

My father says that I spend too much time in front of my computer, and he thinks its better to spend it in front of the TV. So now, he's plugging out our net so we only get it 1 hour a day :( So now I have to sneak up at night to turn it back on, such a pain in the ass... It makes me so angry. Well, I ain't entirely addicted to it. I can lean back and watch Seinfeld or Family Guy, wich i downloaded from The Pirate Bay. When were speaking of TPB, I think its a letdown that they sold it? Where am… Continue

File-sharing website The Pirate Bay had a trial that started on February 16th, and we got word of the verdict April 17th. Well, let me rephrase that… We got official word of the verdict April 17th.

The four defendants affiliated with The Pirate Bay have been found guilty in Swedish court, and have all… Continue

Pirate Bay a thing of the past.

Now that they have been busted and "dealt" with what will happen next? I know they have two chances to appeal but is it worth it? Who knows. I think that The Pirate Bay will be a thing of the past after all this dies down. The Pirate Bay has already cost Sony, Adobe, Apple and every other software/Multimedia company upwards 3.2 million dollars. Which by the way will be paid back if the court doesn't changed their mind along with a year of jail time for each of the four founding fathers. So wha… Continue
