The Pirate Bay Legal Response
The Pirate Bay August 23, 2004 Re: Unauthorized Use of DreamWorks SKG Properties As you may or may not be aware, Sweden is not a state in the United States of America. Sweden is a country in northern Europe. Unless you figured it out by now, US law does not apply here. For your information, no Swedish law is being violated. Please be assured that any further contact with us, regardless of medium, will result in a) a suit being filed for harassment b) a formal complaint lodged with the bar of your legal counsel, for sending frivolous legal threats. It is the opinion of us and our lawyers that you are ...... morons, and that you should please go sodomize yourself with retractable batons. Please also note that your e-mail and letter will be published in full on http://www.thepiratebay.org/ Go fuck yourself. Polite as usual, anakata
A scanned 2004 letter from The Pirate Bay to DreamWorks SKG is shown, responding to legal threats with sarcastic explanations of Swedish jurisdiction. The punchline is the aggressively polite sign-off and absurdly profane legal rebuttal, making it a reaction to overreaching threats or bureaucratic intimidation.
