torrentfreak.com — Today, exactly two years have passed since The Pirate Bay was raided by the Swedish police. Unlike Hollywood would have wanted, the worlds largest BitTorrent tracker now more popular than ever, and they are here to stay.

Am I the only one kind of turned on by the chick in that video? (Not the LazyTown Video, the animation video. Thought I'd make sure to clarify that. lol)

no, because they know its truth. As do the digg kiddies, which is why they digg this down hoping that nobody will find out.

Are you f**king kidding me? you dumb piece of s**t. Trackers don't work with proxies. everything would be incredibly slow. Digg users are so f**king stupid

No one is denying it's illegal, you're the only one who seems to think we are.This is how I justify it, those greedy ass corporations are making more money than I ever will... so is the artist, do you think they do concerts cause they feel like it? They get paid thousands for it, therefore, I have the right to screw them in the ass h**e just like they're screwing me right in the ass h**e. Most people make 40,000 dollars a year, if they're lucky. They make 40 million a month... on a bad month.I would be happy to pay for my music, but the price is a joke. I WILL pay for my music because of this great deal on Zune, 15 bucks a month for all the music you can ever dream of. That's a good deal, but 15 bucks for 19 sucky songs and 1 good one? No thanks, I'll just get the song I like for free.Anyways, they're not losing any money on software, such as CS3, the price is so outrageous, I wouldn't have bought it anyways, if torrents never existed. So really, they're gaining publicity without loosing money... who in their right mind would pay 1200 dollars for a program?"I highly doubt that TPB users are downloading nothing but legal torrents of free music."That's completely wrong, I rarely download my music from TPB... I download software and movies. I doubt anyone else doesn't do that.

Uh, if that really happened, which is doubtful, you need to sue them for invasion of privacy, they have no right to monitor what you're using the internet for and what you're downloading. I doubt it happened anyways, unless that company is asking for a huge lawsuit, and I wouldn't even worry about the illegal download, since it would be inadmissible into court since it was wrongly obtained without a warrant.The most your ISP would be monitoring is the bandwidth in which your using, and HOW MUCH your downloading, not what.So I recommend you sue that ISP, you'll be so rich, you'll never need to torrent again! Assuming what you're saying is ture, which is doubtful... they wouldn't even send you a email about a fine... they'd send the FBI -.-
