Yar well, while they have no idea what they're on about, the cost of pursuing the matter would be far too high to get any real benefit from it for Movie companies, so game developers are probably in the same situation. Unless they sorta made a large alliance and took them down together... :/

For those who have not read it, the reply, which is wholly inaccurate and outrageously ignorant goes as follows:
>>>> As you may or may not be aware, Sweden is not a state in the United States of America. Sweden is a country in northern Europe. Unless you figured it out by now, US law does not apply here. For your information, no Swedish law is being violated.
Please be assured that any further contact with us, regardless of medium, will result in a) a suit being filed for harassment b) a formal complaint lodged with the bar of your legal counsel, for sending frivolous legal threats.
It is the opinion of us and our lawyers that you are fucking morons, and that you should please go sodomize yourself with retractable batons.
Please also note that your e-mail and letter will be published in full on http://www.thepiratebay.org.
Go fuck yourself.
Polite as usual, anakata <<<<
That reply is so typical of punkass kids with no clue, internet tough guys who feel invincible behind their glowing screens. If anything, I would put the screws to this intarweb clown in order to prove a point, take over the thepiratebay.org site, and post a summary of the whole ordeal.
