1
00:00:04,394 --> 00:00:08,194
The series was inspired by true events.

2
00:00:08,274 --> 00:00:11,154
The course of events has been dramatized.

3
00:00:13,794 --> 00:00:16,754
Please take your seats.

4
00:00:17,474 --> 00:00:23,314
Welcome to The Pirate Bay press conference.

5
00:00:23,794 --> 00:00:26,634
We can already move on to questions.

6
00:00:26,834 --> 00:00:30,274
What would a guilty verdict mean for The Pirate Bay?

7
00:00:30,354 --> 00:00:32,914
Nothing. - What could they possibly do?

8
00:00:32,994 --> 00:00:37,714
The attempt to shut down the site has already failed once, let it fail again.

9
00:00:38,674 --> 00:00:44,154
This is not about The Pirate Bay's trial but about politics.

10
00:00:44,794 --> 00:00:49,074
There is an attempt to control the internet by influencing the powers that be.

11
00:00:49,154 --> 00:00:52,674
This is about the fight for a free internet.

12
00:00:52,754 --> 00:00:55,754
So, go ahead. - Where is Fredrik?

13
00:00:59,674 --> 00:01:02,154
I actually don’t know.

14
00:01:03,914 --> 00:01:06,474
Are there any other questions?

15
00:01:42,874 --> 00:01:47,154
You won’t mess this up, will you? - I’ll do my best.

16
00:01:47,914 --> 00:01:52,154
Good. See you tonight. Kisses, kisses. - Kisses.

17
00:02:02,994 --> 00:02:05,514
Good luck. - Thank you.

18
00:02:11,114 --> 00:02:13,634
How can you be sure?

19
00:02:13,714 --> 00:02:17,914
Mom, I’m not worried, so don’t you be either.

20
00:02:18,474 --> 00:02:20,554
I’m concerned, -

21
00:02:20,634 --> 00:02:26,194
because one could get a long prison sentence for that.

22
00:02:26,514 --> 00:02:29,954
There’s not the slightest bit of fear about that.

23
00:02:30,794 --> 00:02:33,714
Good to hear. I love you.

24
00:02:34,114 --> 00:02:37,154
And I love you. Bye.

25
00:02:40,634 --> 00:02:45,274
I bought something like this. Would you try it on?

26
00:02:55,114 --> 00:02:58,314
Yeah. Maybe a little long. - Not at all.

27
00:02:59,154 --> 00:03:01,274
This is really nice.

28
00:03:09,754 --> 00:03:14,954
I think I’ll gather my things and leave. Alright then.

29
00:03:15,554 --> 00:03:18,034
Come on, Pixie!

30
00:03:20,354 --> 00:03:22,434
See you.

31
00:04:07,594 --> 00:04:10,594
Welcome home. - Thank you.

32
00:04:18,194 --> 00:04:21,914
So you kept the car. - Yes.

33
00:04:25,354 --> 00:04:29,234
Does it work well? - Yes.

34
00:04:40,394 --> 00:04:42,394
Listen...

35
00:04:42,754 --> 00:04:46,274
I behaved foolishly on that trip and...

36
00:04:47,634 --> 00:04:51,314
We don’t agree on everything, but...

37
00:04:52,234 --> 00:04:57,954
Maybe we can forget everything. Let’s get the job done.

38
00:04:58,714 --> 00:05:01,474
We’ll show those idiots.

39
00:05:14,474 --> 00:05:16,954
What are we doing here?

40
00:05:17,034 --> 00:05:19,434
Damn good question.

41
00:05:28,274 --> 00:05:30,594
Isn’t it beautiful?

42
00:05:31,034 --> 00:05:33,594
Freaking good.

43
00:05:34,674 --> 00:05:37,034
Absolutely perfect.

44
00:05:50,714 --> 00:05:55,234
Peter, how do you feel about today’s trial? - Good.

45
00:05:55,834 --> 00:05:58,034
Good. - And what about Anakata?

46
00:06:18,594 --> 00:06:21,114
Good morning, parties and representatives.

47
00:06:21,194 --> 00:06:24,234
You have been summoned to the main hearing in the case, -

48
00:06:24,314 --> 00:06:28,354
which concerns suspected assistance in copyright infringement.

49
00:06:28,594 --> 00:06:33,474
I call prosecutor Håkan Roswall to present his demands.

50
00:06:33,554 --> 00:06:35,674
Thank you.

51
00:06:35,754 --> 00:06:40,114
Pirate Bay is now the world's largest file-sharing service.

52
00:06:40,634 --> 00:06:42,794
It’s ad-funded, -

53
00:06:42,874 --> 00:06:46,634
and four defendants have been responsible for its operations.

54
00:06:46,714 --> 00:06:51,834
Thus, they have helped others commit copyright violations.

55
00:06:52,114 --> 00:06:55,274
We are demanding a year of imprisonment -

56
00:06:55,354 --> 00:06:59,154
and 117 million in damages.

57
00:07:00,074 --> 00:07:03,394
How do the defendants respond to the demand?

58
00:07:03,474 --> 00:07:06,914
Carl Lundström denies the prosecutor’s demand.

59
00:07:06,994 --> 00:07:09,954
Fredrik Neij denies the prosecutor’s demand.

60
00:07:10,034 --> 00:07:13,674
Gottfrid Svartholm Warg denies the prosecutor’s demand.

61
00:07:13,754 --> 00:07:18,114
Peter Sunde denies the prosecutor’s demand.

62
00:07:26,794 --> 00:07:31,114
I want to say that I have always been interested in computers, -

63
00:07:31,194 --> 00:07:36,874
technology, the internet, and networks.

64
00:07:38,994 --> 00:07:43,034
I was a bit taken aback. It... - When was the site established?

65
00:07:43,994 --> 00:07:46,954
In 1652 by Charles IX.

66
00:07:49,234 --> 00:07:51,834
Nicely done. - Thanks.

67
00:07:52,514 --> 00:07:57,114
I am interested in technology and it has always motivated me.

68
00:07:57,194 --> 00:08:01,354
I wanted to be part of creating a big and great site.

69
00:08:01,674 --> 00:08:05,634
We also welcome Peter Sunde to the tripartite agreement.

70
00:08:05,714 --> 00:08:08,114
Tripartite agreement. - Right.

71
00:08:08,834 --> 00:08:12,794
What do you think about copyright?

72
00:08:14,314 --> 00:08:18,514
I think it can be problematic.

73
00:08:19,954 --> 00:08:21,994
In what way?

74
00:08:22,234 --> 00:08:26,834
The fact that we are here today is evidence of the problem.

75
00:08:26,914 --> 00:08:32,114
We didn’t talk about what they aim for with their actions.

76
00:08:32,514 --> 00:08:37,154
Fredrik said that he was creating the world’s largest site.

77
00:08:37,234 --> 00:08:41,554
It sounded great, so I decided to invest.

78
00:08:42,514 --> 00:08:46,114
That was my ambition, nothing else.

79
00:08:47,074 --> 00:08:51,394
In the media, you have been described as a computer genius.

80
00:08:51,474 --> 00:08:53,994
How would you describe your skills?

81
00:08:55,074 --> 00:08:58,874
It is true that I have a certain kind of technical expertise.

82
00:08:58,954 --> 00:09:03,114
What does that mean when compared to others?

83
00:09:04,074 --> 00:09:09,594
This can hardly be the right place or opportunity to present my CV.

84
00:09:09,674 --> 00:09:13,954
But I’m asking about it, so maybe you could respond.

85
00:09:14,394 --> 00:09:19,154
I would rather not answer. The question is overly value-laden.

86
00:09:19,474 --> 00:09:21,634
Value-laden? - Yes.

87
00:09:23,754 --> 00:09:27,074
When did you first meet in real life?

88
00:09:28,634 --> 00:09:31,074
Did you say IRL?

89
00:09:31,154 --> 00:09:34,634
In real life. - We don’t like that expression.

90
00:09:34,714 --> 00:09:40,234
We say AFK, away from keyboard. It fits the internet. Thank you.

91
00:09:46,514 --> 00:09:48,674
What will happen to Pirate Bay?

92
00:09:48,834 --> 00:09:51,874
Gottfrid, how did the first day feel?

93
00:09:52,274 --> 00:09:57,874
Boring. The prosecutor apparently decided to lie in the most boring ways.

94
00:09:58,114 --> 00:10:02,514
117 million is a huge amount. Is it really justified?

95
00:10:02,594 --> 00:10:07,474
The largest damage claim is 93 million from my principals.

96
00:10:07,554 --> 00:10:11,514
It concerns downloading five movies over a six-month period.

97
00:10:11,594 --> 00:10:16,834
That shows how much damage Pirate Bay has caused.

98
00:10:28,274 --> 00:10:30,954
Would you help me understand?

99
00:10:31,554 --> 00:10:34,314
Ana. - What?

100
00:10:34,994 --> 00:10:38,394
Why on earth didn’t you hide your machine?

101
00:10:39,634 --> 00:10:42,034
What difference does it make anymore?

102
00:10:42,794 --> 00:10:46,434
After the Cold War ended, new enemies need to be found.

103
00:10:46,514 --> 00:10:49,074
Terrorism, piracy. - And drugs.

104
00:10:49,154 --> 00:10:52,634
Did you see this? - Are you starting to be friends with Jim on Facebook?

105
00:10:52,714 --> 00:10:57,074
Look. He changed his job status just days after the charges were filed.

106
00:10:57,154 --> 00:11:01,034
He works for the company that challenged us. - No way.

107
00:11:01,114 --> 00:11:06,794
His capital income for that year was 890,000.

108
00:11:06,874 --> 00:11:11,994
That's a lot more than the police's salary. - That's just sick.

109
00:11:12,074 --> 00:11:15,794
He also moved from his rental apartment to a house in Bromma.

110
00:11:16,114 --> 00:11:18,954
Who wants to live in some Bromma?

111
00:11:19,194 --> 00:11:22,834
The police investigating the case of The Pirate Bay -

112
00:11:22,914 --> 00:11:27,034
have moved to work for one of the complainants, Warner Bros.

113
00:11:27,114 --> 00:11:31,234
The defendants' attorney sees it as a scandal, -

114
00:11:31,314 --> 00:11:34,834
if the job assignment was known during the investigation.

115
00:11:34,954 --> 00:11:38,394
It's true. I spoke with Stuart from Warner.

116
00:11:38,554 --> 00:11:41,834
I can't understand it. It was really stupidly done.

117
00:11:41,954 --> 00:11:46,034
The defendant appealed the matter, but the appeal will definitely not succeed.

118
00:11:46,114 --> 00:11:49,314
However, this doesn't look good. - I know.

119
00:11:49,394 --> 00:11:52,914
This is a battle for public opinion, -

120
00:11:52,994 --> 00:11:58,194
so it would be good if we could somehow redirect the attention to them.

121
00:11:59,034 --> 00:12:03,634
Let me know if you come up with anything. - Sure. We'll call.

122
00:12:30,514 --> 00:12:32,074
Income report

123
00:12:34,474 --> 00:12:36,714
Only losers pay taxes.

124
00:12:37,834 --> 00:12:39,954
I'm leaving now.

125
00:12:40,434 --> 00:12:43,154
Shall we drop the charges now?

126
00:12:45,314 --> 00:12:49,674
We filed a police report, so let's see. - Alright.

127
00:12:49,754 --> 00:12:54,634
Goodbye, mom. - Bye-bye, my son. Good luck.

128
00:12:56,074 --> 00:12:58,474
Listen...

129
00:12:59,594 --> 00:13:04,874
Just one thing came to mind after following the trial.

130
00:13:04,954 --> 00:13:09,034
Even though you are right, -

131
00:13:10,474 --> 00:13:15,154
So do you still tend to come across as a bit arrogant?

132
00:13:15,234 --> 00:13:18,834
You do come off as quite a know-it-all. - Okay.

133
00:13:18,914 --> 00:13:23,754
No one likes know-it-alls. I just had to say that.

134
00:13:24,034 --> 00:13:27,114
Goodbye. I love you. - Likewise.

135
00:13:48,234 --> 00:13:52,074
THEY DESERVE MILLIONS OF CROWNS ON PIRATE BAY

136
00:13:55,154 --> 00:13:57,794
Did you really get that rich?

137
00:13:57,874 --> 00:14:02,674
The prosecution's desperation shows in how they try to smear us.

138
00:14:02,754 --> 00:14:06,154
There really isn't any basis for the charges.

139
00:14:25,554 --> 00:14:29,634
I never believed that Pirate Bay's operation was illegal.

140
00:14:30,514 --> 00:14:35,194
But the very name itself, Pirate Bay, -

141
00:14:35,354 --> 00:14:38,474
refers to illegal activities.

142
00:14:38,794 --> 00:14:41,434
Not from my perspective. The name just sounded good.

143
00:14:41,754 --> 00:14:46,874
I'm interested in technology, not ideology.

144
00:14:48,874 --> 00:14:55,914
I see. Let's take a look at the video related to evidence A 4321.

145
00:15:01,154 --> 00:15:05,074
MPAA types, the Anti-Piracy Office, Bush and Bodström, -

146
00:15:05,154 --> 00:15:08,114
or whoever was behind that pathetic attack, -

147
00:15:08,194 --> 00:15:12,514
shouldn't scowl at the internet, you will lose this war.

148
00:15:12,994 --> 00:15:18,514
Now let's go all out! Take that, Hollywood!

149
00:15:19,794 --> 00:15:22,434
Let's stop here. Thank you.

150
00:15:23,434 --> 00:15:28,314
Fredrik, this shows that you, or in this case you, -

151
00:15:28,394 --> 00:15:31,474
you are actively working against Hollywood, -

152
00:15:31,554 --> 00:15:34,114
which is evidence of intent.

153
00:15:35,034 --> 00:15:37,554
How do you explain this yourself?

154
00:15:39,394 --> 00:15:43,994
I would rather talk about the prosecutor's internal memo, -

155
00:15:44,234 --> 00:15:47,834
which is dated about six weeks before the PRQ raid.

156
00:15:47,914 --> 00:15:54,114
Direct quote: "Those behind the site are not idiots."

157
00:15:54,474 --> 00:15:59,394
"They are evidently familiar with copyright legislation."

158
00:15:59,834 --> 00:16:04,154
"They know exactly how to operate within the law."

159
00:16:04,954 --> 00:16:09,954
"In my opinion, it is impossible to get them convicted."

160
00:16:10,354 --> 00:16:12,394
End of quote.

161
00:16:12,474 --> 00:16:15,874
What could have changed the prosecutor's mind?

162
00:16:16,754 --> 00:16:19,954
New findings presented the matter in a new light.

163
00:16:20,034 --> 00:16:22,474
Or external pressure.

164
00:16:22,714 --> 00:16:27,474
Or that the prosecutor is a clown. - The judge demands order in the courtroom.

165
00:16:27,554 --> 00:16:30,834
I remind you to speak only when addressed.

166
00:16:30,914 --> 00:16:33,154
Let's keep the tone professional.

167
00:16:34,594 --> 00:16:37,634
Please, go ahead. - Thank you.

168
00:16:39,874 --> 00:16:44,234
The beta version works well. It is a 128-bit encrypted VPN tunnel.

169
00:16:44,314 --> 00:16:49,394
We were thinking of launching it right now and linking it to the Pirate Bay homepage.

170
00:16:49,714 --> 00:16:53,194
How much does it cost? - Only 40-50 crowns a month.

171
00:16:53,274 --> 00:16:56,794
Not bad. That’s it for the file-sharing law.

172
00:16:56,874 --> 00:16:59,394
They rejected it. - Which one?

173
00:17:00,274 --> 00:17:05,034
Our criminal complaint about Jim. He can be called as a witness.

174
00:17:05,434 --> 00:17:10,234
The trial just keeps getting weirder. - There should be a way to appeal.

175
00:17:10,314 --> 00:17:13,674
I don’t know if you can appeal a rejection decision.

176
00:17:19,994 --> 00:17:24,194
I was listening to the radio, and you all seemed to be doing really well.

177
00:17:27,354 --> 00:17:30,034
What the heck... - What now?

178
00:17:35,514 --> 00:17:37,514
The pirates have a service, -

179
00:17:37,594 --> 00:17:41,634
that can hide your IP address while downloading material.

180
00:17:42,314 --> 00:17:46,474
I see. - Look. It costs five euros.

181
00:17:47,154 --> 00:17:51,794
They are willing to pay for this, but not for a movie.

182
00:17:51,874 --> 00:17:55,874
No matter what we do, they come up with something new.

183
00:17:56,874 --> 00:17:59,754
Still, don’t stop trying.

184
00:18:00,914 --> 00:18:05,154
How many times did you ask me out before I agreed?

185
00:18:10,514 --> 00:18:14,554
Five. - And why didn’t you give up then?

186
00:18:15,594 --> 00:18:19,474
Because I fight for justice. Truly.

187
00:18:19,714 --> 00:18:22,034
What incredible luck.

188
00:19:03,114 --> 00:19:06,954
"Prison sentences await them."

189
00:19:16,914 --> 00:19:22,554
Welcome to the main hearing of the so-called Pirate Bay case.

190
00:19:23,834 --> 00:19:27,874
I will start with the contract visible on the screen.

191
00:19:27,954 --> 00:19:31,754
How do you explain that your signature is on it?

192
00:19:32,274 --> 00:19:38,234
As I already said, I have always focused on technology -

193
00:19:38,314 --> 00:19:44,994
not legal documents, which I don’t even read because I don’t understand them.

194
00:19:45,074 --> 00:19:50,034
The revenue from advertisements was used in full for maintaining the site.

195
00:19:50,114 --> 00:19:52,394
I also ran my own operation -

196
00:19:52,474 --> 00:19:57,274
until prosecutor Roswall dismantled everything.

197
00:19:58,474 --> 00:20:05,554
In this email dated April 1, 2006, Oded writes:

198
00:20:06,074 --> 00:20:09,554
"I’m afraid that we are jeopardizing the operation -

199
00:20:09,634 --> 00:20:13,434
which has an annual value of three million dollars."

200
00:20:15,594 --> 00:20:18,954
As you said, the date on the mail is April 1.

201
00:20:19,794 --> 00:20:25,474
The second email that Gottfrid sent to Oded is dated January 20, 2006.

202
00:20:25,554 --> 00:20:27,634
I will read it to the court.

203
00:20:27,954 --> 00:20:35,354
"Can you transfer $3,000 via WU from my share of the TPB profits?"

204
00:20:35,634 --> 00:20:38,554
TPB stands for The Pirate Bay.

205
00:20:38,634 --> 00:20:41,834
And WU stands for Western Union -

206
00:20:41,914 --> 00:20:45,434
through which money can be transferred from one country to another.

207
00:20:46,994 --> 00:20:50,074
Pirate Bay earns its revenue from advertising sales.

208
00:20:50,154 --> 00:20:53,154
Payments go from Eastpoint -

209
00:20:53,234 --> 00:20:56,954
to Random Media BVI, which has an address in Geneva.

210
00:20:57,554 --> 00:21:04,954
From there, the money is directed to the British Virgin Islands tax haven.

211
00:21:05,274 --> 00:21:07,554
The bank records indicate that -

212
00:21:07,634 --> 00:21:12,474
Peter Sunde has received the following amounts from Random Media:

213
00:21:12,554 --> 00:21:19,994
68,750, 92,500, and 37,500 crowns.

214
00:21:20,394 --> 00:21:23,074
How do you comment on this?

215
00:21:23,714 --> 00:21:25,874
It doesn't ring a bell at all.

216
00:21:26,874 --> 00:21:29,874
Not at all? - No.

217
00:21:30,474 --> 00:21:33,674
It just so happens that that has been forgotten.

218
00:21:36,914 --> 00:21:39,954
Let's calculate how much we have made.

219
00:21:40,034 --> 00:21:45,634
We'll start with the exponential function. N is a random number.

220
00:21:45,714 --> 00:21:47,954
Between 100 and 52,000.

221
00:21:48,034 --> 00:21:52,074
The square root of that will give us the price of Monique's soul.

222
00:21:52,154 --> 00:21:55,354
The answer is... - Damn, it doesn’t add up...

223
00:22:14,314 --> 00:22:17,074
Is the trial going well?

224
00:22:17,914 --> 00:22:22,634
Yes, thank you. Quite well. – What about you? - Same here.

225
00:22:22,714 --> 00:22:26,914
I just didn’t know you could lie so much in court.

226
00:22:27,154 --> 00:22:29,354
Interesting... interpretation.

227
00:22:31,194 --> 00:22:35,234
It's amusing how Roswall constantly mixes up bits and bytes.

228
00:22:35,514 --> 00:22:37,794
Excuse me, what did you just say?

229
00:22:38,954 --> 00:22:43,234
I just said that Roswall's technical skills are terrible.

230
00:22:46,834 --> 00:22:48,834
Shall we go?

231
00:22:52,114 --> 00:22:54,114
Hi, Monique.

232
00:22:54,794 --> 00:22:56,994
Hi, Gottfrid.

233
00:23:00,434 --> 00:23:04,994
In my opinion, a little too much self-confidence.

234
00:23:29,274 --> 00:23:33,114
Rsms: Totally crazy thing!

235
00:23:36,474 --> 00:23:40,874
Look who is the lobbyist for the Swedish copyright association.

236
00:23:57,034 --> 00:24:01,754
Hey, it's Peter. Could you meet a little earlier tomorrow?

237
00:24:02,074 --> 00:24:06,274
Good morning and welcome to today's main hearing.

238
00:24:06,714 --> 00:24:09,874
Let's get started directly... - Mr. Chairman.

239
00:24:09,954 --> 00:24:15,474
Sorry to interrupt, but I just received new information, -

240
00:24:15,554 --> 00:24:19,634
which I must promptly bring to the court's attention.

241
00:24:19,714 --> 00:24:21,914
What is it about?

242
00:24:21,994 --> 00:24:27,274
I've heard that the representatives of the complainants, Pontén and Wadsted -

243
00:24:27,714 --> 00:24:31,234
as well as the chairman himself, belong to SFU -

244
00:24:31,954 --> 00:24:34,874
that is, the Swedish copyright association.

245
00:24:35,474 --> 00:24:40,154
In addition, you are on the board of the industrial rights association.

246
00:24:40,234 --> 00:24:45,194
Both of these associations represent copyright holders -

247
00:24:45,274 --> 00:24:48,754
and their task is to advocate for their interests.

248
00:24:48,834 --> 00:24:51,314
They are pure lobbying groups.

249
00:24:52,114 --> 00:24:55,954
It is a downright scandal -

250
00:24:56,034 --> 00:25:00,594
that the judge has concealed his conflict of interest from the court.

251
00:25:03,394 --> 00:25:07,314
Could the trial be annulled due to disqualification?

252
00:25:07,674 --> 00:25:10,154
That is for others to evaluate.

253
00:25:10,234 --> 00:25:12,034
I am in SFU only to -

254
00:25:12,114 --> 00:25:16,194
stay updated in this complex subject area.

255
00:25:16,274 --> 00:25:18,074
I must go.

256
00:25:18,154 --> 00:25:21,274
What kind of consequences might this have?

257
00:25:21,354 --> 00:25:24,754
SFU advocates for tougher copyright laws.

258
00:25:24,834 --> 00:25:29,674
We cannot afford to resort to a private detective like in the movies -

259
00:25:29,754 --> 00:25:32,834
to investigate the judge's background.

260
00:25:36,474 --> 00:25:41,314
The Pirate Bay trial took an unexpected turn, -

261
00:25:41,394 --> 00:25:43,954
when the judge was accused of disqualification.

262
00:25:44,034 --> 00:25:47,434
The defense attorneys complained about the judge -

263
00:25:47,514 --> 00:25:50,754
and demanded a new trial.

264
00:26:44,594 --> 00:26:47,874
I wasted time and money trying to take down The Pirate Bay, -

265
00:26:47,954 --> 00:26:49,954
but all I got was a nice t-shirt.

266
00:26:50,034 --> 00:26:54,954
Cheers to Norström! He is so pathetic. Or disqualified.

267
00:26:55,154 --> 00:26:57,154
Cheers!

268
00:26:58,074 --> 00:27:01,114
SFU receives funding from Svensk Filmindustri, -

269
00:27:01,194 --> 00:27:03,794
which was involved in suing us.

270
00:27:03,874 --> 00:27:05,954
They cover each other's backs.

271
00:27:06,034 --> 00:27:09,114
It's annoying that they didn't realize it themselves.

272
00:27:09,194 --> 00:27:12,914
Norström was deliberately chosen as the chairman.

273
00:27:12,994 --> 00:27:16,474
Like Kafka's Trial. I feel like Josef K.

274
00:27:16,554 --> 00:27:21,314
That's exactly what you are! - The trial must be annulled.

275
00:27:21,874 --> 00:27:27,554
There is no other option. - The question is whether they have the stamina to start over.

276
00:27:39,794 --> 00:27:44,434
Good evening. The Pirate Bay trial will not be started over in the district court.

277
00:27:44,514 --> 00:27:47,994
According to the court of appeals' stance, the judge was not disqualified, -

278
00:27:48,074 --> 00:27:52,794
but he should have provided an explanation of his commitments.

279
00:28:16,634 --> 00:28:21,634
The actions of the accused must be stopped. Let this be a warning example.

280
00:28:21,834 --> 00:28:23,834
I also want to add, -

281
00:28:23,914 --> 00:28:28,394
that The Pirate Bay has caused damage to the companies' goodwill, -

282
00:28:28,474 --> 00:28:31,674
because their movies have been available for download -

283
00:28:31,754 --> 00:28:35,754
alongside, among other things, sex service advertisements.

284
00:28:36,394 --> 00:28:38,394
To my understanding -

285
00:28:38,474 --> 00:28:43,994
we have not seen such a large-scale copyright infringement before.

286
00:28:44,954 --> 00:28:49,234
Despite all the technical complexity -

287
00:28:49,314 --> 00:28:54,234
one simple question arises:

288
00:28:54,754 --> 00:28:59,594
Can someone be held responsible for the actions of others?

289
00:29:00,314 --> 00:29:03,834
No, they cannot. It's that simple.

290
00:29:04,794 --> 00:29:09,914
Many believe in the idea that there are free lunches, -

291
00:29:09,994 --> 00:29:13,714
and this is what The Pirate Bay's operations are based on.

292
00:29:13,794 --> 00:29:16,354
But when the feeling of saturation arises, -

293
00:29:16,434 --> 00:29:22,274
the interest in buying a DVD or going to the movies naturally decreases.

294
00:29:23,034 --> 00:29:25,394
That is completely understandable.

295
00:29:25,474 --> 00:29:31,514
The defendants spit in the faces of the creators and tell them off.

296
00:29:32,674 --> 00:29:38,194
That is why I advocate for a significant punishment.

297
00:29:39,434 --> 00:29:46,594
There is a risk that the court listens more to money than to the common person.

298
00:29:47,434 --> 00:29:50,514
Justice must be independent.

299
00:29:50,594 --> 00:29:55,514
Should a road be dug up if someone is driving too fast?

300
00:29:55,914 --> 00:29:58,394
That is what this judgment is about.

301
00:29:58,834 --> 00:30:02,154
Svartholm Warg said in the interrogation that -

302
00:30:02,234 --> 00:30:08,154
the advertisement was paid 3,500 crowns per week.

303
00:30:08,794 --> 00:30:12,554
After a simple calculation -

304
00:30:12,634 --> 00:30:17,954
the result is 224,000 crowns per week.

305
00:30:18,754 --> 00:30:24,354
When that number is multiplied by 52, the number of weeks in a year, -

306
00:30:24,434 --> 00:30:29,914
the revenues from the operation amount to 11.6 million crowns.

307
00:30:30,714 --> 00:30:34,874
Thus, Pirate Bay is not just an ideological operation -

308
00:30:34,954 --> 00:30:37,954
but pure business.

309
00:30:38,474 --> 00:30:44,754
We will conclude the main hearings of case B 13301 - 06.

310
00:30:44,834 --> 00:30:47,474
We will move on to consider the judgment, -

311
00:30:47,554 --> 00:30:50,594
which will be announced by April 17, 2009, at the latest.

312
00:30:58,834 --> 00:31:01,474
A real waste of taxpayer money.

313
00:31:01,634 --> 00:31:05,114
Does it even matter if the gang can be bribed?

314
00:31:05,194 --> 00:31:07,634
Totally insane! Isn’t it?

315
00:31:09,794 --> 00:31:11,794
How does it feel?

316
00:31:11,874 --> 00:31:16,994
Hollywood has taught that in the end, good always wins. Thank you.

317
00:31:41,354 --> 00:31:46,954
Hi. This is Lee's voicemail. Leave a message, and I'll call back...

318
00:32:07,994 --> 00:32:10,474
Flights from Stockholm to Laos.

319
00:32:56,874 --> 00:33:00,154
Did it start? - Soon.

320
00:33:03,074 --> 00:33:06,314
Has it already started? - Any moment now.

321
00:33:08,954 --> 00:33:12,834
Hi and welcome. - Now.

322
00:33:13,634 --> 00:33:19,074
This is a live broadcast of the verdict announcement regarding Pirate Bay.

323
00:33:21,514 --> 00:33:23,914
The verdict has now been given.

324
00:33:34,074 --> 00:33:37,594
Well then, let’s take a look.

325
00:33:43,074 --> 00:33:47,114
The defendants have committed a deliberate crime.

326
00:33:47,394 --> 00:33:52,314
They have acted with indifference, which demonstrates their guilt.

327
00:33:52,834 --> 00:33:56,514
Gottfrid Svartholm Warg is sentenced to one year in prison.

328
00:33:56,594 --> 00:34:01,634
Fredrik Neij to ten months and Peter Sunde to eight months.

329
00:34:01,714 --> 00:34:04,034
Carl Lundström receives four months.

330
00:34:04,114 --> 00:34:08,914
In addition, there is joint and several liability for damages, 46 million crowns.

331
00:34:09,114 --> 00:34:10,954
The court finds that -

332
00:34:11,034 --> 00:34:15,994
the defendants have influenced the development of The Pirate Bay website.

333
00:34:16,674 --> 00:34:20,714
They have been aware of the distribution of copyright-protected material -

334
00:34:20,794 --> 00:34:24,714
and intentionally promoted copyright infringements.

335
00:34:25,034 --> 00:34:30,194
The defendants are sentenced for aiding and abetting the crime.

336
00:34:41,794 --> 00:34:45,194
Mother.

337
00:35:31,674 --> 00:35:33,914
Where's the champagne?

338
00:35:33,994 --> 00:35:36,474
...there it was in the bathroom.

339
00:35:37,314 --> 00:35:39,874
Congratulations on the verdict. - Thank you.

340
00:35:41,434 --> 00:35:44,314
Good news! - Really good.

341
00:35:46,834 --> 00:35:50,954
Well then, the site will presumably be shut down next.

342
00:35:51,994 --> 00:35:55,034
Well, that's a bit of a tricky matter.

343
00:35:56,554 --> 00:35:58,714
What do you mean?

344
00:36:00,154 --> 00:36:03,274
No one knows where the servers are.

345
00:36:05,314 --> 00:36:09,314
It seems they are located in several different countries.

346
00:36:11,634 --> 00:36:14,034
Is he serious?

347
00:36:14,834 --> 00:36:17,794
So we won, -

348
00:36:18,394 --> 00:36:21,394
but nothing has changed?

349
00:36:25,594 --> 00:36:28,354
Piracy is still illegal now.

350
00:36:30,274 --> 00:36:33,674
But we won? - This is a nightmare.

351
00:36:34,554 --> 00:36:38,794
Did this mean anything? - Not at all.

352
00:36:38,874 --> 00:36:43,274
We wasted millions of dollars and several years on this.

353
00:36:45,994 --> 00:36:49,554
Washington should have intervened immediately.

354
00:37:06,994 --> 00:37:09,034
Are you coming?

355
00:37:30,474 --> 00:37:32,594
ABOUT 7 MONTHS LATER

356
00:37:33,994 --> 00:37:38,714
Interpol's cybersecurity is terrible. - Did you get hacked by Interpol?

357
00:37:40,074 --> 00:37:44,234
Cool to be wanted. - They spelled your name wrong.

358
00:37:44,314 --> 00:37:48,314
Mine? What does that mean? - You can travel.

359
00:37:49,394 --> 00:37:51,954
Are you sure? - At least I would think so.

360
00:37:52,034 --> 00:37:55,714
Where are you? - Are you an Interpol agent?

361
00:37:56,874 --> 00:38:00,754
I'm at a family friend's cabin.

362
00:38:01,634 --> 00:38:05,954
Despite being wanted, we've managed to get to Bangkok.

363
00:38:06,634 --> 00:38:10,954
Why did you go there? - A bit of business. Right?

364
00:38:11,314 --> 00:38:16,114
What are you up to, Gotte? - Nothing special. I need to go.

365
00:38:17,314 --> 00:38:19,474
See you.

366
00:38:19,554 --> 00:38:24,274
Gotte seemed stressed. I wonder how he’s doing? - I don’t know.

367
00:38:24,354 --> 00:38:27,354
The overtime is probably just nerve-wracking.

368
00:38:27,434 --> 00:38:31,954
What job does he have? - Something big related to WikiLeaks.

369
00:38:35,034 --> 00:38:38,594
How long does a crime take to expire?

370
00:38:38,674 --> 00:38:40,714
About five years.

371
00:38:42,354 --> 00:38:44,634
That should be fine.

372
00:38:50,554 --> 00:38:53,954
Let's talk again. - Take care of yourself. Bye.

373
00:38:54,754 --> 00:38:57,514
Welcome, Henrik Pontén.

374
00:38:57,594 --> 00:39:03,274
He is a lawyer for the Anti-Piracy Office and worked on the Pirate Bay case.

375
00:39:05,394 --> 00:39:07,234
Oh come on!

376
00:39:07,314 --> 00:39:12,034
People can have differing opinions, but we support freedom of speech.

377
00:39:12,394 --> 00:39:15,354
First questioner, go ahead.

378
00:39:15,874 --> 00:39:20,274
If I downloaded something and confessed it, what would you do?

379
00:39:23,034 --> 00:39:25,914
I would ask you to stop.

380
00:39:28,674 --> 00:39:32,434
You invited me to speak, so I would like to talk too.

381
00:39:32,754 --> 00:39:34,754
Thank you.

382
00:39:40,874 --> 00:39:45,634
Our guest is Peter, one of the founders of The Pirate Bay.

383
00:39:46,154 --> 00:39:51,874
You’re participating via Skype because you would have been arrested if you had come here.

384
00:39:52,394 --> 00:39:56,234
Peter, how does it feel to be on the dark side of the internet?

385
00:39:56,314 --> 00:40:00,154
I believe I represent the bright side of the internet.

386
00:40:00,234 --> 00:40:04,914
I may be a pirate and a hacker, but I fight for a good cause.

387
00:40:06,794 --> 00:40:09,114
Passport, please.

388
00:40:31,834 --> 00:40:33,834
Excuse me.

389
00:40:45,594 --> 00:40:48,034
Get out of the car. - Why?

390
00:40:51,034 --> 00:40:53,034
Police!

391
00:41:00,234 --> 00:41:02,554
Are you Peter Sunde? - No.

392
00:41:04,674 --> 00:41:07,034
Put your shoes on.

393
00:41:11,594 --> 00:41:13,954
This is unnecessary!

394
00:41:22,714 --> 00:41:28,034
Lee, call your mom. Get back in the car, everything will be fine.

395
00:41:56,474 --> 00:41:58,514
Let’s go then.

396
00:42:14,234 --> 00:42:16,314
Absolutely everything.

397
00:43:35,474 --> 00:43:40,594
The Pirate Bay still exists. The site's administrator is unknown.

398
00:43:55,114 --> 00:43:58,394
