- This week more has come out regarding Last.fm giving out user information (including IP addresses) to the RIAA. Is your information safe? – Deny This, Last.fm & Another Blanket Denial By Last.Fm

- Yet another Judge removed from the Pirate Bay case due to bias. It doesn’t look like this one is going to end anytime soon – Pirate Bay Trial Fiasco Continues: Second Judge Removed for Bias

- The Pirate Party of Sweden (not directly affiliated with The Pirate Bay) may get a seat in the European Parliament – European Parliament Now Within Grasp of the Pirate Party

- Turns out the ‘Wog’ shooting witness Clare is a fake. She told police that she hadn’t seen anything, something that the media must have missed – ‘Wog’ witness Clare Werbeloff WAS a hoax & HATING CLARE WERBELOFF: A GAME FOR ALL AGES

- Check out the pointless but cool gadget, Geek Chart, that shows off what social media you’re most active on. You can see the Geek Chart I prepared earlier in the sidebar of this blog >>
