12 people have been arrested and face up to two years prison or severe fines. And all major DC hubs closed(and told people to hide their shared volumes for the time being)
Effect on internet usage on Iceland

That's for one ISP here on Iceland. I'll try to dig up more images from more companies soon. The major distributor of music and movies is the one behind the whole thing.

The latest reports say that the bandwidth used has been 40% less today than it was yesterday!

While bandwidth use at companies has been stable, bandwidth used by ISP's for private users has dropped about 40%.

Hmmm...I'd like to think that even better results could be obtained if something similar happened in Germany, but I think German pirates do all their work using CD duplicators and CD-R(W)s.

No trees were killed in the sending of this message. However, a large number of electrons were terribly inconvenienced.

When your country only had 250,000 people, and its major past time is bing drinking, I guess you need to find some fun on the internet. I'd like to see the rates in a week. I'm sure it will go back up again.
