They'll go to a higher court so the proces will go on for about 3~5 years.
The court messed up terrible here, they claimed that hosting links (in whatever form that is) can be a punishable crime...
bye bye google...
bye bye yahoo...
bye bye altavista...
and... bye bye internet
P.S. Anyone who quotes my post will be a criminal too: http://www.thepiratebay.com

As sad as this makes me, I'll just have to find another place to download movies. =[

Ahaha.
It's not over yet, though. The moral line in this whole argument is just toooo thin. Sure, they knew they were hosting illegal stuff, but at the same time, should it really be a website's responsibility to monitor 24/7 that illegal content or links to illegal content doesn't slip by? If so, why don't they just sue Google. If I type in "torrents" or "movie torrents" or whatever into Google, I can find a text link to illegal, copyright material.
Hmm...

ThePirateBay does not host illegal content. It links to illegal content.
But honestly, do the MAFIAA (slashdot slang for MPAA, RIAA, and associates) really think that they can stop P2P in its tracks?

You wont have to find anywhere else to download your movies etc. Piratebay itself isnt down and probably wont be.

It'll be taken to a higher court where they win anyway. meh.

Ok, er, this is actually a few days old.
The team of 4 at TPB repealed the decision and it's going to take 2 or 3 more years to be back in court again, and in Sweden that means they get to keep their property up until it's resolved.
TPB isn't going anywhere. :>
