Its pay back time

For all those who use torrents for file sharing, this is a time for giving something back to the sharing community. The Pirate Bay, one of the biggest sites hosting torrent files and the largest torrent tracker has been put on trial. Here's something you could do to protest against this.

Visit the site trial.thepiratebay.org.
Get in touch with what is going on in the community.

The best way is to protest through your local media.
Visit trial.thepiratebay.org/2009/02/16/publish-as-us-in-your-country/#more-171
to know what to do.


Here are some excerpts from the article:

"...Our adversaries basically wants to close down internets and remodel it into something similar of a sodamachine serving entertainment. During the trial, the prosecutor together with a coterie of representatives for a disabled business model will put up a tacky theater by telling stories designed to convince the court that The Pirate Bay infact is a menace to society...."

"...The future is built by us. Us who participate in conversations. The future is built by us who explore how information and performativity is coming together..."
