Was just reading this...

At one point the judge was asked if he was concerned for his personal safety after handing down this decision. The judge said he hadn?t received any harassment and was quite surprised at the question.

While the judge won?t be getting any flowers for this verdict, Roger Wallis who spoke in favor of The Pirate Bay at their trial and received a mountain of floral tributes in return, noted, ?This will cause a flood of court cases. Against all the ISPs. Because if these guys assisted in copyright infringements, then the ISPs also did. This will have huge consequences. The entire development of broadband may be stalled.?

"Peter Sunde characterized the verdict as ?unreal? and said that he didn?t expect the jail sentence. He briefly spoke with Fredrik and Gottfrid and all were surprised with this outcome. In response to the fines Peter said: ?We can?t pay and we wouldn?t pay if we could. If I would have money I would rather burn everything I owned.?
