Re: Pirate Bay founders jailed

Yes, but a gun doesn't kill people, people kill people. Pirate Bay isn't
infringing, they are just creating the gun.

Taking down Pirate Bay will do nothing for stopping pirating software and
media. It'll slow them down for for only a short period of time. The only
way pirating will be stopped is to stop the people pirating the software to
begin with. I agree that it is far easier to get the distribution networks
shut down than to get the piraters, but it is also just as easy for the
piraters to create a new distribution network within days which then has to
be shut down.
