No they don’t, they and the rest of the US entertainment industry forced our government to put an increasing amounts of pressure on Sweden resulting in anakata and the other 2 founders serving a year in prison plus about $4 million in fines about 5 years after this was sent. They are lucky they live somewhere where the penal system is not overly retributive, otherwise the punishment would’ve likely been much more severe
(Assuming you’re American) your tax dollars at work
This was not an action simply fought by movie studios lawyers across the sea. MPAA lobbied the government to use soft power and the government did.
Wikileaks diplomatic cables showed US government put a ton of pressure on the Swedish government over the Pirate Bay. If Sweden failed to act they risked political consequences including being placed on a list of countries that fail to protect us intellectual property and potential economic consequences
Further the 2006 raid on the Pirate Bay was in some part due to US government pressure and while no US officials were physically present they were coordinating with Swedish authorities
American government serves business interests. It’s more or less entirely beholden to private interests, even at the expense of the public.

This pressure involved direct communication, as well as the threat of trade sanctions and potential World Trade Organization action if Sweden didn’t take action against The Pirate Bay. The U.S. was concerned about Sweden’s role in harboring a major site facilitating the unauthorized distribution of copyrighted material.
Google “AI”, as all current LLMs, is constantly giving incorrect information.
For your sake, you should never use an LLM as a source of information or a tool to make summaries.
Current LLMs are only useful for further AI investigation or as sources of entertaintment.
If even knowing that you are willing to continue using them, please, at least do not give their responses to other people as facts.
If you are not willing to put in the effort to write a response, just don’t respond.
I feel like it summarized it just fine. It wasn’t anything I didn’t know as truth in the summary, and I’m well aware of an llms limitations. But if you’d like more direct info there’s an article Here

Too bad nothing changes and pirating is making a big comeback.
The louder pirating gets, the more dander we’ll shake out of copyright holders until they start prosecuting again.
How is a film studio’s legal action anyone’s tax dollars at work?
