15.Notorious pirate website faces copyright case......

• Swedish prosecutors have filed charges of copyright infringement against the world's most notorious piracy website, claiming it is profiting from the trade in illegal downloads.


• The website does not host any content itself, but acts as a search engine of video, audio and other information held on the computers of millions of people worldwide.


• The prosecutor Hakan Roswall Said "The operation of the Pirate Bay is financed through advertising revenues. In that way it commercially exploits copyright-protected work and performances."


• The site's owners have insisted that they do not make any profit from the Pirate Bay, using any money generated from advertising to cover the costs of running the site. surely its still illegal though if your drug dealing you dont get away with it if your not making any money?
