Mick Ohrberg's Journal: Swedish Police Forcing ISP's To Block TPB?

As of yet unverified rumors say that the Swedish Police Ministry is working with several Swedish ISP's to block the popular torrent search engine The Pirate Bay, claiming that the reson for blocking TPB is that they contribute to the proliferation of child pornography. You may remember that the site was shut down by the Police once before. Even if this is a false alarm, how long before other similar sites are shut down for similar alleged reasons? And, if it is true - how long before TPB is back online?

Confirmed.
