15-year old boy in trouble for file sharing

15-year old boy in trouble for file sharing

When most of you were 15-year old kids, the last thing on your mind would probably be spending time in a courtroom for breaking the law because you were caught downloading movies. Well, that's what a 15-year old boy from Gothenburg, Sweden is going through right now. It was reported that the boy is currently facing charges from “international movie companies” (most likely the MPA/A) for illegally downloading and sharing 30 movies online. While Sweden has been known to be pretty lenient with piracy in the past, the recent downfall of The Pirate Bay and the increased pressure of the movie and music industry have changed things.
