Another well known filesharing proponent has been arrested after some time hiding out from the authorities.
http://www.slyck.com/story2443_Pirate_Bay_CoFounder_Peter_Sunde_Arrested_in_Sweden_Will_Likely_Serve_Time_for_TPB_Copyright_Violations_RulingIn a report by Reuters, Sunde was arrested today in the southern Swedish county of Skane. "We have been looking for him since 2012," said Carolina Ekeus, spokeswoman at the Swedish National Police Board. "He was given eight months in jail so he has to serve his sentence." Sunde had been living in Berlin, Germany, but returned to Sweden at times due to having family there.
I think this is actually helpful to him as once the prison times over he can walk the streets again and its only a year after all, I'm sure he can content himself with the notion that society in general but specifically Swedish society is not yet ready to share things for free and a few martyrs are expected along the road to a global file sharing paradise.
