Sweeden actually has incredibly fast internet connections. The average person (at least a couple years ago) often had lines that were 10x faster than the average person in the states. More comparable to a t3 line than a DSL line.
Those guys are big on the internet over there.

Maybe he was confused by:

I did read what yea wrote, and said it's in Swedish not Spanish, nor English.. I was agreeing they need an English link to fully understand what the hell is going on.

Very very true, and in this case, you should live by your own words. Half my message didn't type, because my cheap carrier is going slow today.. I was agreeing with him.

The piratebay guys are well known for 'busted' hoaxes. While they might be busted (they will be some day), I wouldn't be surprised if it's just a server upgrade, and they leaked a funny story, and the site is up by the end of the day.
Just incase it happens, I called it. :P

Well, what your message said, conveyed what you did type, and not what you meant to say, I guess. Maybe you should type the whole thing next time, .

WOW!! this is big news. It thought they didn't have laws for software patents. And the EU just decided not to allow them. Good thing I use private bitorrent sites.

Well, it was only a matter of time anyway. You can't expect mainstream piracy outlets to exist forever, much less if they work well. Piracy will always exist for those who want it.

The main problem I forsee see is that if they raided the homes of thepiratebay staff, and seized their personal computers, it's highly likely they'll find lots and lots (and lots) of illegally copied content on those. That could be a problem.

They've had a long fucking time to see it coming. Regardless of which location got raided, they should be smart enough not to leave stuff like that around.
There's no way they didn't see this coming sooner or later.

Piracy has saved me several hundreds of dollars. I may have even unknowingly hit the $1,000 mark.
I could not possibly call that bad. Unethical, but not bad

You should steal graphics applications. You're in the $10,000's of stolen software with just a program or two.
Of course, having hundreds of thousands, or even millions of dollars worth of software isn't 'saving money', as you're not going to buy an 8,000 dollar 3D app anyway if you don't run a business.
