Three founders of The Pirate Bay have lost an appeal against a conviction for illegally sharing copyrighted content.
The Swedish appeals court upheld the 2009 ruling against the site's founders which saw them sentenced to a year in jail and heavily fined.
The ruling reduces the sentences the men face but increases fines to 46m crowns (£4.1m).

That site was founded on moral uppitude. They probably believed they were not breaking any laws while enabling millions of others to do so. Yet... now it's a year in jail. Man.
