FILE SHARING DATA
1. Stockholm police have seized a computer server believed to
contain the largest quantity of pirated material ever
discovered in Sweden. The server was located in the
Brandbergen neighborhood south of Stockholm and was part of a
Nordic file sharing ring known as Sunnydale, according to the
Swedish Anti-Piracy Agency, a private copyright advocacy
group.
2. The confiscated server contained data equivalent to 16,000
movies. The Sunnydale ring consists of 10 servers, together
containing approximately 65 terabytes of pirated material
ranging from movies and music to television series and
computer games. Although the police have made no arrests and
the suspects operating the server have not been identified,
the server ring has collapsed as a result of the raid,
according to Anti-Piracy Agency attorney Henrik Ponten.
