The founders of The Pirate Bay were arrested. TPB itself, however, will remain up and usable, so nothing to worry about. People are still, however, extremely pissed, and the RIAA and MPAA are still going to be violently raped.
What happened
Fredrik Neij, Gottfrid Svartholm Warg, Carl Lundstrom and Peter Sunde were found guilty of breaking copyright law and were sentenced to a year in jail. They were also ordered to pay $4.5m (£3m) in damages. Record companies welcomed the verdict but the men are to appeal and Sunde said they would refuse to pay the fine. Speaking at an online press conference, he described the verdict as "bizarre". "It's serious to actually be found guilty and get jail time. It's really serious. And that's a bit weird," Sunde said. "It's so bizarre that we were convicted at all and it's even more bizarre that we were [convicted] as a team. The court said we were organized. I can't get Gottfrid out of bed in the morning. If you're going to convict us, convict us of disorganize crime. "We can't pay and we wouldn't pay. Even if I had the money I would rather burn everything I owned, and I wouldn't even give them the ashes."
It is almost certain that The Pirate Bay will keep on sailing, long after today's court judgment
Read more at the dot.life blog Q&A: Pirate Bay verdict Send us your comments The damages were awarded to a number of entertainment companies, including Warner Bros, Sony Music Entertainment, EMI, and Columbia Pictures. However, the total awarded fell short of the $17.5m in damages and interest the firms were seeking. Speaking to the BBC, the chairman of industry body the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) John Kennedy said the verdict sent out a clear message. "These guys weren't making a principled stand, they were out to line their own pockets. There was nothing meritorious about their behaviour, it was reprehensible. "The Pirate Bay did immense harm and the damages awarded doesn't even get close to compensation, but we never claimed it did. "There has been a perception that piracy is OK and that the music industry should just have to accept it. This verdict will change that," he said.
The Pirate Bay's first server is now a museum exhibit in Stockholm The four men denied the charges throughout the trial, saying that because they did not actually host any files, they were not doing anything wrong. Speaking on Swedish Radio, assistant judge Klarius explained how the court reached its findings. "The court first tried whether there was any question of breach of copyright by the file-sharing application and that has been proved, that the offence was committed. "The court then moved on to look at those who acted as a team to operate the Pirate Bay file-sharing service, and the court found that they knew that material which was protected by copyright but continued to operate the service," he said. A lawyer for Carl Lundstrom, Per Samuelson, told journalists he was shocked by the guilty verdict and the severity of the sentence. "That's outrageous, in my point of view. Of course we will appeal," he was quoted as saying by Reuters news agency. "This is the first word, not the last. The last word will be ours." Political issue Rickard Falkvinge, leader of The Pirate Party - which is trying to reform laws around copyright and patents in the digital age - told the BBC that the verdict was "a gross injustice". "This wasn't a criminal trial, it was a political trial. It is just gross beyond description that you can jail four people for providing infrastructure.
Mark Mulligan from Forrester Research says what was different about Pirate Bay
"There is a lot of anger in Sweden right now. File-sharing is an institution here and while I can't encourage people to break copyright law, I'm not following it and I don't agree with it. "Today's events make file-sharing a hot political issue and we're going to take this to the European Parliament." The Pirate Bay is the world's most high profile file-sharing website and was set up in 2003 by anti-copyright organization Piratbyran, but for the last five years it has been run by individuals. Millions of files are exchanged using the service every day. No copyright content is hosted on The Pirate Bay's web servers; instead the site hosts "torrent" links to TV, film and music files held on its users' computers.

Time: 00:00 A.M. / 12:00 A.M.
Description: LAZER tool set to hit signed targets files LAZER is harder better faster stronger than the other flooders. currently set to target MAQS, ifpi and their mailservers
Some people are not able to understand the concept of a countdown and started to fire the lazers at [somebody enter exact time here].
MAQS IS DOWN AS OF 2009-04-23 00:36:08 UTC
Raid Result: Awaiting Results [Update as we gather info]
Some preliminary results from the first few minutes of the raid:

By 8:40EST (around) it seems www.maqs.com either disabled HTTPD, their host pulled their virtual server, or something similar. Site is up, but there is no content (under construction).

For you Mac/Linux users and Windows users with Perl installed:
- extrapolate wrote an awesome BWrape Perl script that has multi-threading support. It _should_ work for anyone who is able to run WGET from the command line and has perl installed (linux/mac/windows/whatever). Or just download and run this (works for mac too). http://anonym.to/http://anonymous.pastebay.com/11044 It may be a good idea to set $rape to http://maqs.com/contact/searchpersons.aspx?first_name=&last_name=&office_id=0&legal_area_id=0
- See http://anonym.to/http://anonymous.pastebay.com/10998 <--UPDATED
Note: If you are using Linux or Mac, remove --delete-after and add -O /dev/null to the end of the wget line, as it will prevent files from temporarily being cached on your hard drive, resulting in less write cycles, less wear on your disks, and faster, SUPER OPTIMIZED pwnage.
- DONT run any BWrape scripts until the countdown is complete...we don't want them removing the files...

Overload Reports
Basically, spam the living shit out of the piracy report thingy
Is this form even getting submitted?
- See line 267 of source
- <input type="image" name="ImageButton1" id="ImageButton1" src="submit_button.gif" onclick="DisableButton();" style="border-width:0px;" />
- --> onclick="DisableButton();" <--
Yes it is being submitted, see the js function it calls:
function DisableButton() {
--> document.forms[0].submit(); <-- window.setTimeout("disableButton('" + window.event.srcElement.id + "')", 0); }
It just stops people from accidentally clicking submit twice.
Shitty Products
Target the media company's shitty products. Look up products produced by media companies. Tell people how shitty they are. Make them lose money.
