When you think pirates these days, you conjure images of flamboyantly foppish fellows, beards beaded and doo-ragged domes. I comment today not on those sea fairing swashbuckling skalewags, but rather the dastardly digital do-bads downloading documents, data, dance music and DVD dupes.

The Jolly Roger waivers at the Pirate Bay are in some hot meatball sauce with the Swedish Government.

Possibly illegal!
The eyepatchers and pegleggers claim:

- They can never be stopped for their reach extends beyond the four corners of the (round) earth and into the very internets we breath.
