Loading ...Paid $1 to See The Pirate Bay Movie
I am completely pro-freedom of information. People who know me well, have been privy of that for years now. So, in my travels to learn about new beats to bounce to, I came across the making of TPB AFK: The Pirate Bay – Away From Keyboard. I donated my $1 in exchange for the making of a potentially great movie documenting the struggle of people who believe in something and are willing to go to extremes to fight for it.
“About this project
Two years in the making, TPB AFK is a documentary about three computer addicts who revolutionized the world of media distribution with their hobby homepage. How did Tiamo, a beer crazy hardware fanatic, Brokep a tree hugging eco activist and Anakata, a paranoid cyber libertarian, get the White House to threaten the Swedish government with trade sanctions? TPB AFK explores what Hollywood’s most hated pirates go through on a personal level.

This campaign starts exactly one month before the Court of Appeal hearings start in The Pirate Bay trial in Stockholm, Sweden. In 2009 the founders of The Pirate Bay were convicted to 1 year in jail and to pay damages of around 4 million dollars for having ‘assisted in making copyrighted content available’. The precedent in the Pirate Bay case will have consequences for the future of the internet. We will cover the upcoming trial closely.
After the court case we’ll sit down with two years of footage and start editing a first roughcut. The money we raise here will go to studio rent and an editor.
Thanks for showing interest in our project, all support is deeply appreciated!
Simon Klose

I use this magazine subscription site a lot and have received lost of free subscriptions. Their consumer site also offers pretty good rates on paid subs as well. Their USB thumb drive memory stick offer was too cool not to share. Enjoy
