Why Web and Movie Pirates Can’t Be Touched

PirateAccording to forbes pirates don’t just plunder. In Sweden, it seems, they also believe in sharing.

As the world’s largest repository of BitTorrent files, ThePirateBay.org helps millions of users around the world share copyrighted movies, music and other files–without paying for them.

That’s illegal, of course–at least it is in the U.S. But when Time Warner‘s (nyse: TWX news people ) Warner Bros. studio accused them of breaking U.S. copyright law in 2005, the pirates gleefully reminded the movie company that they didn’t live in America, but rather in "the land of vikings, reindeer, Aurora Borealis and cute blond girls."
