“Uhhh, this has a very chilling effect…

What about private parties that have, and use anti-anti-p2p blocklists for use with peer guardian (or firewall rules) on their computers?

Does this make it illegal to have IP data for private use?”

NOT in the least,how could it if you follow the ruling it cleary involved the USE of personal data.

the question you need to ask is “how do you equate personal data to a website IP” ?

you dont and cant is the answer, Now it may be that there are web sites (in the darknets of the comercial sector for profit businesses) that are collecting the IP addresses of peoples personal IPs and that would be covered by the data protection acts of the EU countrys OC, but not the other way around.

there is after all no “business data protection act” legislation, as they are not people, only people inside them hiding behind the corporate paper, that make their choices to spy, wiretap, collect and process your personal data for commercial profit etc.

Don’t you mean Pirate Pontén?

Even if that was the case it won’t help Antipiratbyrån. Swedish ISP’s are not government agencies and the law also applies to them so they are not supposed to have the information MAFIAA wants.
Several Swedish ISP’s are flat out refusing to store any traffic-information as they say the Personal Data Act specifically prohibits them from doing so without a court-order .

?Copying others works is NOT a natural right. According to his own definition of “rights”, our ownConstitution would say that you can copy other people’s things, which couldn’t be further from the truth. The Berne convention (something which probably 2% of pirate are probabalyaware of) established that holding the EXCLUSIVE rights over a creative work is right and over 170 countries are bound by it.

Hence copyRIGHT. It’s in the name.

?Almost every creative work is automatically protected by copyright. It doesn’t have to be granted, which suggests, that contrary to his subjective ranting, that copyright is right, not a privilege that must be granted.

?The judge won’t care if you tell them that copyright is a “privelage” not a “right.” Its just semantics.

?Bottom line he seems to be trying to skirt around is that copyright is part of the law and if you break it, you will be stuck with the consequences.

If you are not just an industry paid troll i would like to see your take on the arguments made on this site http://www.digitalproductions.co.uk/index.php?id=171

as he does a much better job of explaining what i think than i can, maybe you might learn something ;)

AHAHAHAAHAHA!!

The Pirate Bay is like the mafia? The PIRATE BAY is like the mafia?

Ah hah. Let me just say I stand here in awe as I eagerly await more nuggets of wisdom from you. Such as “the ocean is dry” and “the sun is cold”.

“Grow a pair, sweden.”

They did. Have you seen the parliamentry election results? Swedes stood up and said NO to Hollywood.

Antipiratbyrå will soon follow, now we just need to make storing of IP addresses illegal in the US.

neostyle did you forget all the US copyright infringments that have been made for the minor 300+ years your USA has existed against the likes of the Uk and the many EU countrys inventors copyright for US COMMERCIAL PROFIT.

you do understand the difference between a “non profit” end user, and “for commercial profit” infringment dont you @31 neostyle
even in your country ?

ones a tort common law offence.

the other ones a lock you up for a long time if you cant afford a top rated and highly payed lawyer firm to defend you in your country….

Awhile back, Congress did a report on countries which basically shit on copyright holders. If I was in charge, Sweden would be one of the first contestants to hit the paper. For a decade, they have fostered The Pirate Bay’s theft and helped it grow into the world’s biggest digitial crime syndicate. Actually, they are alot like the mafiia. Their crimes cost society millions if not billions and then when questioned about it they come up with snarky responce.

Somone in sweden should have realized “hold on, what these people are doing is nothing more than common theft” instead of “wel itz intranetz so dats okay den ^___^”

Grow a pair, sweden.
