The Founders of Pirate Bay and their Jail Time
What’s truly interesting about the Pirate Bay is that, though so many people and countries have to shut it down, it’s still thriving. People have done everything to stop the Pirate Bay. They’ve made it inaccessible in certain countries, they’ve issued warnings to people who try to use it, they’ve disable the site name, but nothing has sticked. One thing you would expect that would discourage the founders of the Pirate Bay is sending them to jail. Four men were sentenced to up to one year in jail in 2009. Those men were Gottfird Svartholm Warg, Peter Sunde, Fredrick Neij and Carl Lundstrom. They were also made to pay a 46 million kroner fine. They were sentenced to jail on the basis of copyrighting. There were about 30 or so cases related to copyright infrigements listed on their charges, which is clearly only a few compared to all the content on the Pirate Bay. After all of this occurred, you would expect that the Pirate Bay website would have been discontinued, but it wasn’t. The founders were later go on to do more jail time, but they site never came down. In 2020, it’s not nearly as popular as it used to be, but it’s alive and well. The men who created the Pirate Bay are proud of what they accomplished, and one creator, Fredrick Neij, said “it was well worth doing prison time.” The founders aren’t really associaed with the Pirate Bay anymore, but their legacy lives on with it. In 2011, two of the Pirate Bay’s original three founders– Gottfried Svartholm and Fredrick Neij–created a new file sharing site, the Bay Files.
