Pirates vanquished!

John Moe Oct 7, 2011

Well, only for a month. And they’re French Internet pirates. It seems they’ve been violating France’s Internet copyright laws but instead of going to jail or having massive lawsuits filed against them, they’re just sort of grounded for a month. The 65 scurvy dog pirates failed to heed three warning letters. Avast matey! Don’t heed the warning letters! Arr arr, parrots, walk the plank, arr.
