A court in Sweden has jailed four men behind The Pirate Bay (TPB), the world's most high-profile file-sharing website, in a landmark case.

Frederik Neij, Gottfrid Svartholm Warg, Carl Lundstrom and Peter Sunde were found guilty of breaking copyright law and were sentenced to a year in jail.

They were also ordered to pay $4.5m (£3m) in damages.

That's pretty shocking. I mean seriously...are copyright infringements ever punished with jail time? The fine is somewhat justifiable but shii..

$4.5 million in damages to who?

They'd need to evenly split that between all music, movie, television, video game and software company on the planet.

Aha ha ha ha, that's hilarious.

Poor guys, but they were smart-mouthed bastards with their page of emails they sent to companies.

So is it safe to "acquire" "certain files" from the "website in question"?

Sucks for TPB, but I've moved on to private trackers a long time ago.
