"Look out Pirate Bay, the FBI and the MPAA have joined forces to create a new Swedish anti-piracy 'p2p' "hit squad"."

Hmm, anyone ever hear of National Sovereignity? To call this an outrage is a gross understatement, an AMERICAN, Federal law enforcement bureau working with a MULTI-NATIONAL (FOREIGN) CORPORATE INDUSTRY to STRONGARM and ATTACK another SOVEREIGN country because the Internet is "too powerful", and is global, and it pisses them the hell off that tens of millions are running torrents at full steam despite all their propagandized bs warnings.

There is only one solution to this.

But I doubt it will happen.

The feds and the MPAA are themselves now TERRORISTS, because THEY think they can overthrow the laws of another country, just because Sweden doesn't have a BULLSHIT DMCA like the United States does. They're going to to use force to make it as though they DID have a DMCA. This is a perfect example of the war against the Internet if I've ever seen it. If the Internet were invented today, it would be ONE HUNDRED PERCENT LOCKED DOWN FROM DAY ONE, make no mistake about it.

Sweden needs to employ the ".50 cal solution" to these terrorist thugs who are about to invade Sweden and disrupt their servers and their operatiojns, thats right FIFTY CAL SOLUTION, YOU ARE THE ENEMY, YOU HAVE MADE THE COMMON PEOPLE YOUR TARGET, AND THUS YOUR ENEMY, THEREFORE *YOU* YOURSELF ARE IN FACT THE NEW AND REAL ENEMY AND YOU AND YOUR ILLUMINATI/BILDERBERG/CFR/TC LEADERS WILL FEEL THE WRATH OF THE FREE WORLD. THE INTERNET CANNOT BE STOPPED, YOU CANNOT SUE 127.0.0.1, YOU CANNOT SUE 192.168.1.0-255, YOU CANNOT SUE 192.168.2.1, FREE SPEECH CANNOT BE STOPPED, ENCRYPTION CANNOT BE STOPPED, YOU WILL FAIL, AND IT MAY COST YOU YOUR LIFE IN PERSUING THIS FUTILE AND EGREGIOUS, BULLSHIT, PROPAGANDIZED, AND CONSCRIPTED ARM TWISTING FASCIST AGENDA. SHAME ON YOU FBI FOR WASTING AMERICAN TAXPAYERS DOLLARS TO *INVADE* ANOTHER COUNTRY AT THE WHIMS OF A *PRIVATE INTEREST GROUP*, SHAME SHAME SHAME!!!
