in response to the convictions against thepiratebay: http://thepiratebay.org/blog/151

Long live, thepiratebay. I couldn't believe that verdict when I heard it. The legal precedents that they're completely ignoring makes such a trial more of a farce than the most beggardly witch hunt of the Dark ages. It clearly shows you that the courts, the juries, the judges, and the entire system work for one class: those wealthy enough to buy their way out. In the words of Anacharsis, "The written laws are like a spiderweb; they catch the weak and poor, but are broken by the rich and mighty." My right to freedom, liberty, and equal protection of the laws are important -- more important than some pathetic case brought by the RIAA. Europe hasn't seen such a disgusting a revolting day since Galileo was dragged across Europe with a festering illness; we look back to that day with shame, that we didn't do more to destroy the power structures. Today, with the conviction against thepiratebay, suspicions about government being controlled by a first-class can be cast out -- they are no longer suspicions, but demonstrable facts.

Death to Capitalism! Death to the state and all laws!
Long live thepiratebay!
