News Pirate Bay Founder Finally Arrested in Thailand

[AdultKing]

This is good news.

Immigration police have arrested a co-founder of The Pirate Bay, a BitTorrent index site and tracker, while he was trying to cross the border from Laos into Nong Khai.

Hans Fredrik Lennart Neij, alias TiAMO, was arrested at 12:30 pm Monday while driving through the border checkpoint with his Lao wife.

He was wearing the same shirt that he wore in his arrest warrant photo.

Nong Khai Immigration police held a press conference at 10am Tuesday to announce Neji's arrest.

According to Pol Maj Gen Chartchai Iamsalaeng, the commander of Immigration Police Region 4, Neji admitted that he was the same person on the arrest warrant.

Neji was charged with collaborating with three others in setting up The Pirate Bay website that acts as an index and tracker of Bitttorent files, peer-to-peer file sharing protocols, allowing users to download copyrighted content, including software, movie and music.

The four have been accused of causing damage to the tune of 1.2 million Swedish krones or Bt5.3 million.

Neji and his friend were sentenced to ten months in jail and a fine of Bt5.3 million but jumped bail and fled to Laos and Cambodia.

So why didn't he stay in Laos until his crime was time-barred (...is that the right word)?

Yeah, sure, but it was just a matter of a couple of years, I've heard he only had to stay away 1 more year. I'm sure that's better than prison and also paying up a lot of money.

See Tolling the Statue of Limitations
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tolling_%28law%29

When you are not in the legal reach of the Court the statute of limitations is suspended (or tolled).

[brassmonkey]

he probably paid for a fake arrest hahaha!!!

[The Duck]

He will get a crazy sentence, one which will probably be worse than what a rapist or someone committing violent assault would get. Welcome to the wonderful Swedish judicial system.

Time for some sexy treatment

These guys are going to get passed around like bitches on shower night at San Quentin...MPAA will be fucking them for a long time, country by country...

[AdultKing]

He should rot in jail for a long time, while he was at the helm of The Pirate Bay it was used to distribute torrent files of a lot worse material than simply pirated tv shows and movies.

Even after being cleaned up The Pirate Bay is a site which revels in breaking the law, it even deliberately designs systems specifically tailored to evade prosecution such as it's distributed model and the various other systems that keep this scourge on the Internet going.

Let's not forget that these guys also spawned a hosting company (PRQ) that right now hosts child pornography, cryptolocker command and control servers, credit card theft forums and other nasty cybercriminal operations. They claim they will host anything.

These guys represent everything that is bad about the Internet.

seems like lie, any proof on that CP claim ?

" If it is legal in Sweden, we will host it, and will keep it up regardless of any pressure to take it down."

No it's not legal in Sweden, this is what the sites do.

They host a normal looking site at PRQ, then they run it for a little while as normal. Then they switch content and redirect other domains to that site. PRQ don't care what's hosted there. It can take months to act on some of these sites. By the time the site has been killed another pops up.

edit: we have several sites in our database (forums mainly) linking to bestiality and worse which are hosted at PRQ and have been for more than a year.

[pornguy]

He will buy his way out and vanish again.

i would rather say - 100 $ milions of doubtful profit with risk, instead of easy 800 $ milions

btw. I'm really glad that Dutch people think that way - I realy love all those 0 $ sales and huge dialer profits made on Dutch traffic

one of the few developed countries where affiliate sales always do suck

[L-Pink]

Wish he would have resisted and got shot.

Because they make a nice chunk of cash from companies like Exoclick and have been able to use technology to avoid being able to be taken down. However The Pirate Bay is far from the worst tracker there is - there are some that make The Pirate Bay look small time.

They rape hackers instead of rapists now in prisons?
And why would they be transfered to San Quentin?

And they are what? TPB is one of the biggest, so not sure which could make it look small time. Unless you are talking about questionable content and not the volume of pirated content.

No, I am talking volume. There are trackers that have a greater volume of material than The Pirate Bay.

[seeandsee]

Why are you personally so happy?

You made money on it, i don't get it?

[freecartoonporn]

where are they hosted now ?
why cant police/court orders pull plug is beyond my thinking..

The Pirate Bay have had several domains seized but they use a distributed hosting model which means if one host is taken down it can be replaced quickly by another.

The key here is to (a) prosecute anyone involved with The Pirate Bay and lock them up and (b) keep seizing their domains.

damn, i dont know when this will end , but there should be strict laws , its like fucking big loophole . take one down they host at another one .

[lock]

I would think that the conscious users of the software maybe the guilty or just as as there is a lot of grey area here. A gun maker isn't automatically guilty of murder or a gun designer. At what point does the user need to take responsibility? Youtube started similar and possible to send files with icq etc. wondering if there is still a future in the functionality of the software or whether it will eventually be illegal so send a file eg: Not downloaded from an approved site. Not defending the guy that is lawyers job. The site is still hosted so if anything could really be done the site would have been shut down long before an arrest. New names etc isn't stopping them. It has continued to run under new names. Just think the net is getting further censored as a way of prevention rather than an answer to the solution. Nice to think that you can make something and it will be yours without it being ripped off but it is every industry and it is the arts which gets the most attention and prevention. Patents are ripped off daily in plastics industries most likely costing as much as entertainment losses. Problem with most pirated industries the people don't know they have a counterfeit. Deception is the objective to counterfeiting but pirating downloads is finding willing parties that can make any host an accessory to their actions. Not defending just wondering how the big picture will look like.

Looks like it is going to take a month to get him extradited out of Thailand. That means 1 month in a Thai jail cell, where dudes get beat up, raped, sick, and so on, on a regular basis. The next 30 days for this scum bag will be spent with a hole in the middle of the floor where everyone will watch him shit and piss, and he'll sleep in an over crowded tiny room, no aircon and SE Asian heat, touching other guys on all sides, horrible food (if any), and abuse from the police. Guys die in the cells all the time, often beaten to death. The police do not care.

Dude is in for a hard 30 days. I'm guessing he will be raped within the first week. At the very least, forced to suck dirty Thai cock.

He's at Bang Kwang apparently - very sordid and nasty place.

Good. He's a fucking thief who profits off of the actual work of others while he creates nothing himself.
It's about time.

Your command of English is as poor as your ethical compass.
In prison, bitches get raped. And he makes a fine bitch. Of course in Sweden, he'll probably get a fondue set and some recording time in the prison studio.

Prison in Bangkok isn't fun

Among the horrors Fellows endures inside Bangkok’s Maha Chai prison are constant bites and stings by ants, mosquitoes and giant sewer rats. Food consists of maggot-riddled rice and ground-up cockroaches. Fellows witnesses a guard beat a convict “so heavily that the prisoner’s eyes bulged from his head with blood spewing from behind them.” He also recalls a man’s skull smashed with the butt of an M16--“Making a rude blurting sound, the Thai’s head just split apart, like a watermelon that had been dropped from a height”--and another prisoner put in a bamboo cage and crushed by an elephant.

And the fun doesn’t stop there! Fellows vividly describes the trauma of being forced to stand in a shit-clogged sewage tank (“Almost as repulsive as the smell was the feeling of this broth creeping around me, seeping into every crevice and pore of my body”) and packed into the “Darkroom,” a tiny sweatbox of a cell crammed with 20 other prisoners. In another cell he’s tormented, he claims, by the wailing of a ghost woman who died years earlier. Fellows appropriately (and understandably) enough becomes addicted to heroin.

Keep in mind that the above only covers Fellows’ Maha Chai years. After three of them he’s transferred to Bang Kwang, or Big Tiger, apparently the “most feared prison in the world.” There he’s forced to drink filthy river water, undergo heroin withdrawal while moldering in solitary confinement, ordered to crawl through the contents of an exploded sewer, and made to witness a flood of maggots disgorged from a lump on a man’s neck (a cockroach having crawled into his ear and laid eggs).

I hope the extradition proceedings take a while
