"We have no longer any interest in participating in traditional media since it’s apparent that they are not trustworthy"Trustworthy? That's really f**king funny from a guy running a site who's main business is copyright infringement.

Maybe people should be pissed at, I don't know, the assh**es who murdered the kids in the first place? Misplaced rage is the worst kind.

This is a ridiculously sensationalised issue. There is no credit at all to the value of having this type of information in the public domain, why did Sweden open public access to it in the first place? It is a horrible murder case and if the suspect is found guilty (update?) this material being instanly available internationally may prove valuable to police working on other cases for profiling purposes, or independant analysis may yet exhonorate the suspect. The www was invented to share scientific research and this is precisely what is happening.I applaud TPB's conviction and IMO they have taken the punches for a good cause, this is definitly the ugly side of freedom of information, but i think necessary public information.

It's a different story in Sweden, SVT is the most reliable news source and you can count on them for objectivity... But in this case they failed.
