Piracy

The Pirate Bay is one of the largest file-sharing sites in the world. It was founded in Sweden in 2003 by Gottfrid Svartholm, Fredrik Neij, and Peter Sunde. They were tried for copyright infringement in 2009. Ben visits Stockholm to tell the story of the internet trial of the century and looks at how it affected our relationship with big media, copyright, and the notion of ownership online.
