Regardless of what political organizations the Pirate Bay guys belonged to, what they were doing was wrong on its face. As someone else has said in this thread, they made no attempt to even pretend they weren't encouraging and facilitating copyright violations. How moronic do you have to be to call your enterprise "The Pirate Bay" and think you'll actually get away with it?
If they hadn't been so overtly encouraging copyright violations, that would be one thing, but it's hard to have any sympathy for the situation in the current circumstances.
