The Swedish police and Swedish ISPs have together made a list of sites that should be blocked because they spread child pornography. During a recent high-up meeting, the Swedish Police decided that The Pirate Bay is a candidate to the list. TPB has indeed hosted torrents with child pornographic content at times, but these have been removed as soon as possible by the administrators. TPB has been caught by surprise by this as they not been informed by the Swedish Police of the update of the list. As stated above, TPB does in fact remove this type of content, one of few it actually does remove. This is not final though, but most likely a very serious warning sent out to Pirate Bay.

The best thing TPB could probably do is to give the IP-addresses of the ones who uploaded the child pornography to the police, since I really think that it should be battled at all costs.

I myself wouldn't care for TPB being blocked by Swedish ISPs though.

Hey, I use TPB all the time... If the Swedes blocked it, it'd probably just shut down...
