Contents/Summary

Summary
The legal question is how governments should deal with copyright in the age of the internet. Conversely, the practical question is whether Peter Sunde, Fredrik Neij and Gottfrid Svartholm Warg, the three co-defendants in this copyright infringement lawsuit, should pay millions of dollars in penalty fees and even be sent to jail. Change is inevitable—millions of Internet users exchange movies every day without paying producers and distributors their share by using websites like the Pirate Bay. But for now Hollywood is determined to stop them. This fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the controversial court case explores the issues that a new generation of media consumers has evoked: free Internet, free speech and the future of creativity in the digital age.
