Swedish Supreme Court Denies Pirate Bay Appeal

news_pirate-bay-logoIt looks like the PirateBay founders have lost their final appeal (insert random nautical pun here). After initially being sentenced to 12 months in prison and fines of $6.8 Million US Dollars (which we will talk about in a minute) Peter Sunde, Fredrik Neij, and Carl Lundstrom have gone through multiple appeals one of which resulted in the reduction of the amount of prison time, but their final Swedish legal step was declined by the Swedish Supreme Court. The move by the high court is puzzling, disappointing and not unexpected.
