It may be immoral, but they are being charged with something that is not illegal. This makes the Swedish courts look biased because they are doing what they think is right, not what is written in law.

They technically don't deserve jailtime based on law.

Didn't Sweden just recently changed it's copyright laws? I don't know if this had any effect on the case though.Also I doubt any of us has actually studied Swedish law, so it's tough to say what it actually says about this whole thing.

On a somewhat related note, although most of you probably hate this idea. I think the Internet should go to a more unanonymous direction. People should behave on the net as they normally do in society. Yes, some people would do this stuff on the streets but I think it would help remove the safety of no one knowing (or thinking that no one can find out) who you really are.

Now that I think about it, Ebaums is actually worse. Although they aren't damaging an industry.

because eric sold his site years ago for millions of dollars.
