The Lawless Internet takes another hit

A Swedish appellate court late today (Friday) upheld the convictions of three operators of the Pirate Bay website, Frederik Neij, Peter Sunde and Carl Lundström for what was called “contributory copyright infringement” and sentenced them to prison and ordered them to pay damages of more than $6.5 million. In its ruling, the court said, “The Pirate Bay has facilitated illegal file-sharing in a way that results in criminal liability for those who run the service.
For the three defendants the court of appeal believes it is proven that they participated in these activities in different ways and to varying degrees.” The court reserved the harshest sentence for co-founder Neij, who was ordered to spend 10 months in jail. Sunde, the Pirate Bay’s spokesman, who resigned in 2009 after the lower court’s verdict, was sentenced to eight months in prison. Receiving the lightest prison sentence — four months — was Carl Lundström, a wealthy businessman who financed the ISP that hosted The Pirate Bay. Although all three were ordered to pay total damages of $6.5 million, only Lundström, it would seem, has the means to pay any of it — and will probably wind up paying all of it. Following the verdict, the Motion Picture Association (MPA), which represents the major studios overseas, issued a statement saying that it welcomed it and added, “This confirms that such activities are illegal and if you engage in them, you run the risk of very significant consequences.”

Being poor and illegal on the internet is getting harder and harder. I really hope they are putting as much effort in squashing kiddy porn as the are making sure I don't download episodes of Fringe.

Music Minute

I die for Patti Smith.
You know whats coming, and yet you still can't wait to hear her sing it. The woman's a genius.
Bow down you mere mortals to the melodious sounds of P.Smith.

Two weeks is a long time

This is why Fringe is the only show I am actually watching right now. While other shows have become repetitive or simply lost my interest, Fringe continues to be the best show on television. Twice the character development as other shows, all the action, infinite continuity and half the calories! Also it somehow manages to be both funny, touching, and sexy. The bad guys are complex, watchable and exciting, I mean, how much do you love to hate Walternate? And no matter how bad Fauxlivia is, you really wanna like her... at least I do. It's also nice to now have villains we know. And not only do we know them, they are the alt version of the main characters. I can only imagine how interesting it must be for these actors to be playing two sides of these character. The alt teams also allows to have Charlie back (who I missed), and see Olivia in a new team dynamic.

All in all Fringe is the best show on television you are probably not watching. It's the best of Alias and The X-Files all rolled into one.

Anyone else watch Fringe!?! Hit up the comments!

Maybe I'll start watching again

Supernatural "Clap Your Hands If You Believe" opening credits, X-Files style.

Supernatural has unfortunately been one of the shows that I have neglected this past television season. Maybe I'll start up again.

*Heavy Breathing*

Disapointing

Is it just me or does this not look that good?
I'm just sayin'!
