Pirate Bay boycotts 'traditional media'

article published on 12 September, 2008

Last week we reported that the torrent tracker The Pirate Bay was under fire from the Swedish media for not taking down a user-uploaded torrent that included autopsy pictures of two murdered children. The request was from the father of the murdered children but The Pirate Bay stuck by their morals and refused to take it down, claiming that the Internet is a free place and they refuse to censor. ... [ read the full article ]

varnull i actually thought your pic was cool and clever.

I dont believe in having thoughts dictated to me or to anyone, i am not a fan on the media and this article brands them in an even worse light than before. tpb got punked by the media and that isnt right regardless. they have shown themselves to be sly and decieving and has lost integrity.

funny because when i read that comic you did i associated it to my views on the issue, where as you did it to espress your own which is different to mine (to a degree :P)

I'm all for freedom of speech and TPB and totally agree with their response to the media, however I think they should have taken it off for now at least if only for the sake of the kids father..

Notoriously tasteless Chicago Radio Talk show host Steve Dahl was pretty rebellious years ago but proved he had a heart (at least a conscious) by stopping the on-air broadcast of one his many satirically spoofy songs (Pink Floyd's - Another "brick in the wall" / Another "kid in the crawl") in reference to serial killer John Wayne Gacy's 33 victims under his house. One of the boy's fathers was a fan and asked him to stop and from what I remember way back when, he complied. I think sometimes a blanket policy/principle can be grayed a bit with some good old fashioned respect for a grieving parent - c'mon people.

The fire needs to be forced differently. The father should beat and/or sue the ever living crap out of the person who took/leaked the photos.
