Pirate Bay Founder Held in Solitary Confinement Without a Warrant
 

Full Story http://torrentfreak.com/pirate-bay-f...arrant-131211/

"Since his arrival in Denmark to face hacking charges Gottfrid Svartholm has sat in solitary confinement, denied free access to mail and denied access to his books. The situation has outraged Wikileaks? Julian Assange who says Gottfrid is now a political prisoner. Meanwhile Gottfrid?s mother Kristina has written to Amnesty hoping that they will take notice of her son?s plight.

Following a failed last-ditch appeal to the Supreme Court in Sweden, Gottfrid Svartholm was extradited to Denmark last month.

The Pirate Bay founder stands accused of hacking into the mainframe computers of IT company CSC. In an earlier case in Sweden he was acquitted of similar charges.

Previously in Sweden and within the natural parameters of his detainment, Gottfrid had been granted various freedoms, including socializing with other inmates and the ability to receive mail. He also enjoyed access to books for his studies, an absolute must for someone with such an active mind but no computer or Internet. However, since arriving in Denmark things have been very different."

Can someone tell me what he's done other than allow everyone to download pirated stolen stuff ? Why would the wiki leeks guy even bother commenting ?

To me hacking is the same as breaking and entering. Fuck him.

The poor love.

:2 cents:

Good. I hope that fucker rots in there.

(Typed while checking utorrent to see how much time is left on my full season of blacklist download)

Throw away the key for this arrogant, repeat offender.

Hope he gets executed for his crimes of robbing people he could never pay back.

Piratebay is not going down, so they can lock him but... still all torrents up

Screw that guy :2 cents:

another non-producer chimes in :1orglaugh

This guy has to be super rich, but looks like a smelly hippy.

Those Danish are NON-CONFESSED Nazis...

It's a lost cause anyways. I wonder what Marcel Damaged has to say about this?

Just askin...

but these look like normal hippies that groom themselves. Gottfrid looks like he should be begging for change.

Fuck him. Let him rot in a cell all by his lonesome.

Pirate bay helped to steal tons of stuff and they made pennies on it. Add in that they were fugitives for years and I doubt he is rich.

It's not just you! Site is down for everyone.

wtf has a warrant got to do with solitary confinement? That's like screaming how unfair it is that someone was arrested at the scene of a crime without an APB - fucking dumb.

VenusBlogger!

"...and denied access to his books."



Oh, your books Gottfrid ? So now you wish to get all protective over property. The irony.

I wont cry for him.

Good, bootfuck him!

his domain changed extension with a dot pe. lol

This is for hacking, not torrents.

He shouldn't be in solitary confinement. He should be treated how anyone else is treated who breaks the law of hacking into another mainframe.

HUGE!!!! forehead. Smart ass?

I don't care what he's in jail for. That thieving piece-of-shit is exactly where he belongs and with any luck that's where he'll stay.
.

Yep... he's were he is supposed to be.

In jail

Didn't know they even had solitary confinement there.

Looking to see if I have any sympathy for him.

Nope.

It's still in the dictionary between shit and syphilis.

I don't think I've ever seen a human with lower ears.

Too close to call LP. :1orglaugh

wonder why someone just doesn't buy all the top level domains out there.

read above.

Isn't he accused of "liking" Cambodian kids just a little too much? He got popped there anyway.

Hope he rots like winter fish in Norway.

I still believe he shouldn't be put in solitary confinement.

Charged for hacking ... yes.

I don't like when anyone with power decides to do whatever they want with someone in custody.

very true!

Look at the guy. Maybe being in "solitary confinement" is for his own best interest.

Well this guy hacked the central mainframe that stores the entire Danish populations social security register and with that data, you can do A LOT of nasty things. He also obtained access to the Danish "DMV" equivalent - so he's done some pretty serious stuff.

Having said that, it's normal here to put people in solitary confinement. People sit there for years on while their case is pending a court date. The police says it's to protect their investigation, but is a very real problem - especially since most people develop a range of mental problems by that treatment and because most of them aren't really in any danger of jeopardizing said investigations.

But this guy is pretty guilty, but knowing this country he'll soon be back out and once he does get his sentence, he'll probably sit in a minimum security prison - seeing how everything else is bogged down with all the bikers and gangbangers.
