"Corruption Goes All the Way to the Top", Says Pirate Bay Chief

"Orders went straight top to bottom, from the Swedish minister of Justice,to Chief Prosecutor, etc, to the policemen doing the raid." minister of Justice,to Chief Prosecutor, etc, to the policemen doing the raid."

Basically what you have here is the U.S. gov. stepping in for the MPAA to pressure Swedish offcials to arrest the people who run Pirate Bay website. Swedish law allows them to do what they're doing...they weren't breaking ANY laws. Yet due to the U.S. backed pressure, the Swedish goverment decided they needed to shut them down. It's getting harder and harder to defend the actions of our government everyday. The men arrested said they should have the site back up and running shortly probally just forcing the authorities to arrest them again. Of course this will snowball into an underground distribution of a web site, the fina goal being to never allow the site to go down no matter how hard they try. Welcome to CrzyLand
