that btw is totally fucked up

the prosecution failed to prove that the pirate bay was even involved in the trading of copyright material (DHT was turned on, they didn't have a single screenshot of the tracker list to show that the peers were assigned by the tracker)

and they got convicted.


so basically the arguement was the pirate bay is guilty of copyright infringment even though there isn't any evidence they were even involved in any of the transactions we investigated.

I realize it getting off on a technicality but if to say that a judge who complete ignores the fact that the procecution didn't even prove defendents were involved at all and still comes to the conclusion that they were guilty of the crime that (at least based on the evidence) they were not involved in at all is not bias is total bullshit.
