    Pirate Bay co-founder 'TiAMO' arrested in Thailand

    https://www.theguardian.com/technolog...ested-thailand
    A co-founder of Swedish file-sharing website Pirate Bay has been arrested while trying to cross into Thailand from Laos, local police say.

    Hans Fredrik Lennart Neij, known to hackers as TiAMO, was detained in the north-eastern Thai town of Nong Khai.

    He was subject to an international warrant after he was convicted in 2009 of aiding copyright infringement.

    Pirate Bay, which offers an expansive list of links to pirated content, is one of the world's most-visited sites.

    The 36-year-old Swede was convicted by a Swedish court five years ago.

    He and three others were given one-year sentences and ordered to pay $3.6m (£2.4m) in damages.

    Another one bites the dust :V

    Correct me if I'm wrong here, but aren't the PTB servers located in Sweden because they knew the copyright laws didn't apply there?
    Why are they still getting arrested...

    He broke international copyright laws.
    So I assume other governments (Most likely the United States) were working with Sweden so they could issue a warrant for his arrest.

    Fine
    When he was found trying to cross into Thailand from Laos, he was together with his wife. He was also wearing the same shirt as worn on the picture from the arrest warrant.
