Michael Jackson to Take on The Pirate Bay

torrentfreak.com — Micheal Jackson and several other artists plan to take on The Pirate Bay. The king of pop hired the infamous ‘Web Sheriff’ to protect his rights. “Hey Michael - do you want us to pay you in small kids maybe?” was the first response of Pirate Bay admin Brokep.

  • Kennerk, on 05/17/2008, -24/+321my god.... does anyone else need anymore proof MJ is a giant bag of hot, steamy Douche? TPB FTW
    • jemka, on 05/17/2008, -4/+119Top 3 reasons why MJ is making a big mistake:
      1. TPB cannot be tricked into going over MJ's house because it loves roller coasters.
      2. TPB will not be able to sleep over.
      3. TPB isn't a young boy with a small smooth penis.

      Send this to MJ's legal team and I'm sure we'll see this end peacefully. It's simply a misunderstanding.
      • lamiaconfitor, on 05/17/2008, -0/+45there is that and the fact that no one is pirating any of his albums on pirate bay, he just thinks they are because no one wants to buy his stuff.
        • prurigro, on 05/17/2008, -2/+37I thought you were joking so I checked myself and there literally aren't any micheal jackson torrents currently being seeded! just top 100 ***** with one of his songs added in.
        • lamiaconfitor, on 05/17/2008, -0/+17@prurigro, that is actually hilarious, I actually was joking... good to know :) hooray for fact checking.
        • Vipersfate, on 05/17/2008, -0/+5Glad I didn't download that 100+ songs of the 80s! It had 2 MJ songs in there! Oh snap!
        • x00x, on 05/17/2008, -1/+2LOL !That's briliant!
        • flashback99, on 05/17/2008, -0/+1He's already spent all the money he made from pre-internet, when we actually bought physical copies of his vinyl, tapes, CDs and DVDs.

        • mm911, on 05/17/2008, -0/+11That's probably because you spelled his name wrong...it's "Michael" not "Micheal." There are hundreds of seeders when you spell it correctly.
        • Bamshackle, on 05/17/2008, -1/+2haha spelling for the win!
        • mCanada, on 05/17/2008, -0/+2Everyone on that "top 80's torrent" should stop until the web sheriff makes up his ***** story, the inflated numbers will be far more hilarious if it = zero.
    • Kyrgizion, on 05/17/2008, -1/+19Is anyone seeing a pattern here?
      Artist's career goes down the drain, artist goes unnoticed for years, artist decides his failure to stay hot is because of TPB (and of course it has nothing to do with being a ***** child molester in this case), Artist sues TPB.

      I sincerely hope he'll go facedown into the *****.
      • grimward, on 05/17/2008, -0/+12These artists should pay TPB for making them famous again.
      • solid12345, on 05/17/2008, -0/+1Their CD or merchandise sales haven't gone up because of the TPB so why should they thank them?
    • AmateurX, on 05/17/2008, -2/+9I agree, but did you have to use the word "steamy"?
    • zongamin, on 05/17/2008, -8/+4Yeah what kind of idiot would try to prevent people from downloading their songs without paying....
    • Trollhammaren, on 05/17/2008, -0/+8It cracks me up how articles about MJ always have that horrendous portrait of him, it's like his official online brand now. Whenever you think of him you remember this pallid cross between the G-man from HL2, a chihuahua and an Asian housewife.

      ***** that's depressing :(
      • bat-21, on 05/17/2008, -0/+4It's because mugshots are public domain.
    • phoomp, on 05/17/2008, -0/+4MJ *is* a giant bag of hot, steamy Douche, but under the current concept of intellectual property, he *does* have the right to try and protect that property.

      Of course, that doesn't mean the current concept of intellectual property isn't utterly flawed in the modern world or that he'll *be able* to protect his flawed concept of intellectual property.

      Sadly, people getting his music through TPB may be the only people listening to it anymore.
    • jonthomasdesign, on 05/17/2008, -0/+2He has to pay for his Pedophile ranch somehow .. who the hell would DL His stuff now anyway , his last good record was like 15+ years ago and everyone owns it
    • Fordi, on 05/17/2008, -0/+3Heh. All I can say is, "Good luck, whitey."
    • rentmitchum, on 05/17/2008, -1/+1***** THING SUCKS!
    • tensvb, on 05/18/2008, -0/+2After all he has been through... :'(
      LEAVE MICHAEL JACKSON ALONE!!!1!!!
      • Kennerk, on 05/18/2008, -0/+1Yes, chris, if you say so.... How's that TV show of yours doing?
  • skazhy, on 05/17/2008, -8/+225i wonder who is taking him seriously.
    • StephenCIreland, on 05/17/2008, -2/+23nobody i hope, but MJ if you take down TPB thats tracking music torrents of yours it will also take down the CP torrents you crave....
    • Dustmuffins, on 05/17/2008, -0/+6He's just angry because TPB doesn't allow child porn.
    • mllawso, on 05/17/2008, -0/+3Child defense lawyers.
  • gta3mobster, on 05/17/2008, -12/+49Apparently Jackson needs money for the Neverland Ranch: http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601088&si ...

    Kinda ironic the timing of the ranch deal and lawsuit are spaced only 5 days apart. I love how thepiratebay guys maintain a sense of humor with all these agencies crawling up their ass. thepiratebay should send a bunch of Peter Pan peanut butter to Jackson (since neverland ranch is derived from Peter Pan) http://www.fda.gov/oc/po/firmrecalls/photos/peterp ... ; Jackson seems like the type that'd get upset over the gesture: "Those Swedes are ignorant!"
    • highwebl, on 05/17/2008, -0/+5Jackson has wasted more money on frivolous crap than any 10 normal people could spend in a lifetime. At the point he was hovering at the brink of bankruptcy, his accountants told him he would be better off if he could spend under $1M a month, but his monthly expenses were averaging $1.8M.

      This is not a man hurting from a few downloads.

      It would be nice if he could realize that when he really needs is a good psychoanalyst.
    • Calle1620, on 05/17/2008, -0/+1Come on, we need to support ol Mike so he can afford to feed his pet monkey and keep his oxygen sleeping tank and whatnot running. Has he not suffered enough?! *sob sob*
  • sluggysan, on 05/17/2008, -22/+393I wonder if Michael Jackson used P2P when he was trying to distribute his penis to young boys
    • trispear, on 05/17/2008, -1/+143I heard he used PP2PP.
    • j0nnyDiGITAL, on 05/17/2008, -5/+18This comment wins the internetz.
    • fakekevinrose, on 05/17/2008, -0/+2i mean, cmon michael
      you need to take a look at the man in the mirror and tell him to beat it because i wont stop till i get enough
  • sourceholder, on 05/17/2008, -9/+127Good thing the Pirates don't have children...
  • Daniel591992, on 05/17/2008, -4/+61I wonder what Bob Marley would think about this... No Worries?
    • Hoody28405, on 05/17/2008, -3/+5.....or maybe he would be eating doughnuts right about now.. with... 'Jammin'!
    • mCanada, on 05/17/2008, -1/+1No! He'd say "No woman no cry" Har har har ...fail train
  • mataranka, on 05/17/2008, -8/+156that picture is michael jackson? i can't believe anyone would think he's a kiddie fiddler.
    • goldfishey, on 05/17/2008, -0/+8I don't know - seem's a good likeness for the monster under your bed!
    • CarnivalOfDust, on 05/17/2008, -0/+2Is that a pedismile, or is that just what his mouth looks like these days?
  • EmporerTitus, on 05/17/2008, -19/+10Michael Jackson seemed to enjoy the protection of the Copyright Cabal when he was making money. Hollywood mafia lackey Pellicano was dispatched to attack Jackson's 13 year old accuser. And who knows what Jacko was doing on Pleasure Island, protected by the Eisner's private Disney security forces. All we know is that when Jacko was used up and not profitable, and the Cabal wanted his Beatles Copyrights, he fled to the Nation of Islam and Dubai. Hmmmm.....

    As for Pellicano's highest loyalty, the facts of history speak for themselves:

    Pellicano considered Fields by far his most important client.

    It was Fields who, according to former Pellicano employees, brought Pellicano into DreamWorks Animation C.E.O. Jeffrey Katzenberg's litigation with Disney's Michael Eisner, Tom Cruise's defense against a gay-porn star's sex allegations, Imagine Entertainment's suit against Mike Myers, and Kevin Costner's struggle with a difficult British fan, to name but a few. "He would speak to Bert just about every day," says DiSabatino, "and if he was working one of his cases, they would talk a few times a day."

    Until Pellicano's indictment, in fact, Fields was probably his biggest fan, serving up adoring quotes for media profiles of him. "Time after time, Anthony comes up with the witness I'm looking for," Fields told a writer in 1992. "He gets me results, so I stick with him."

    Kat Pellicano discloses a measure of how tight the two men became. "Six or seven years ago," she says, "Anthony comes home one night and tells me we are going to become Jewish and that Bert Fields has arranged conversion classes for both of us. I said, 'Anthony, with all that Italian and Catholic ***** of yours and my being an almost atheist from Oklahoma, why the hell do you want us to become Jewish?' He tells me, 'Because Bert thinks it will be good for my business. Most of the lawyers out here are Jews, so it would be a good thing.' I refused to participate, and the idea eventually went away." http://www.vanityfair.com/fame/features/2006/06/pe ...
  • drastic8, on 05/17/2008, -12/+101...last place on earth with true freedom is Sweden. I really want to move to Sweden.

    Shamelessly ripped from Brokep. Keep on truckin TPB.
    • MacSuxWindozSux, on 05/17/2008, -11/+2The last place on earth with true freedom is Sweden. I really want to move to Sweden.
    • Stormwern, on 05/17/2008, -1/+8Abba is thus far a good ambasador since they have refused to sue any of their fans. Imo, PB embody the swedish no ***** attitude. "Innocent until proven guildty" is not optional, period. So far PB have been harrassed, arrested and their servers siezed indefinitely, and have yet to be proven guilty of anything.
    • Typhoon2009, on 05/17/2008, -7/+3eh they've got a fair share of muslim fanatics there. Just don't make any drawings of Muhammad and you'll be fine.
      • Sofi4n, on 05/17/2008, -1/+6I beg to differ, sir. The country you are talking of is Denmark.
        Okay, thanks, bye.
    • Jacolyte, on 05/17/2008, -4/+2Because Sweden is the highest per capita atheist population.
    • Flipperbw, on 05/17/2008, -0/+4go ahead and move then. no one is stopping you.

      *cue excuses
    • bat-21, on 05/17/2008, -0/+3Freedom's not free. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sweden#Welfare_state

      Since the late 1960s, Sweden has had the highest tax quota (as percentage of GDP) in the industrialized world, although today the difference between other high-tax countries such as France, Belgium and Denmark has narrowed. Sweden has a two step progressive tax scale with a municipal income tax of about 30% and an additional high-income state tax of 20–25% when a salary exceeds roughly 300,000 SEK per year. The employing company pays an additional 32% of an "employer's fee". In addition, a national VAT of 25% or 18% is added to many things bought by private citizens, with the exception of food (12% VAT), transportation, and books (6% VAT). Certain items are subject to additional taxes, e.g. electricity, petrol/diesel and alcoholic beverages.
  • oojamaflip2006, on 05/17/2008, -7/+56shamone *****

  • buffyangel108, on 05/17/2008, -3/+19Is that headline a euphemism?
    • Khanvalescent, on 05/17/2008, -0/+9Wasn't he just in trouble for showing children his Jolly Roger?
    • Khanvalescent, on 05/17/2008, -2/+9Could be. I know Jackson was previously in trouble for trying to stick his Jolly Roger in some Pirate Bays.
  • Khanvalescent, on 05/17/2008, -10/+85Jacko seems to think any of his albums after Thriller are worth ripping and sharing.

    I think not.
  • PatNolan, on 05/17/2008, -18/+9Nothing that chester ever made is worth ripping. Even the few good songs are so tainted by kiddie sex that anyone even listening to them should be jailed.
  • sfacets, on 05/17/2008, -28/+101Who even bothers sharing Michael Jackson stuff?
  • MrRobotoSki, on 05/17/2008, -3/+45Al least come up with a reasonable sum of money. $100,000,000 oh is that all? Are you sure you don't need more than that? As if TPB guys have that much money laying around. I'm sure they make a good living from the site but come on be real, *****. Also it's as if DMCA is a worldwide set of laws. Thanks God they're not.
  • MrRobotoSki, on 05/17/2008, -5/+12Also he needs to get off his ass and go earn some more money. He's such a freak that he would want to were that veil on stage, and no one would want to see him. Maybe Japan or some other country that loves washed up performers would welcome him. I bet Paul McCartney is laughing his ass off from his giant mansion.
    • FinalSword22, on 05/17/2008, -0/+2Hey, don't make fun of Japan!
      • fuzzybeard, on 05/18/2008, -1/+1Why not?
      • FinalSword22, on 05/29/2008, -0/+1Well, for one, (almost) every piece of technology you own was designed or built by Japan.
        For two, they're one of the few allies that doesn't hate us.
        For three, they're awesome.

  • socivitus, on 05/17/2008, -8/+3I love how TPB gets all the attention for law suits, etc. I know they are popular and can't be touched because of Swedish laws, so why do companies even bother. If they want to take down torrents, they need to start at the bottom and work up.
    • boobyman, on 05/17/2008, -0/+5Swedish copyright laws are a bit different compared to the ridiculous DMCA.
      According to Swedish law, you are prohibited to distribute and download copyright protected material.
      However - it doesn't state that you mustn't provide ways to do such activities.
      There are huge debates in the Swedish government on whether or not it is illegal to allow ways to distribute copyright material.
      You might as well cut off our internet connections. oh wait. they're already doing that in France...
      BitTorrent and p2p are nowadays crucial ways to distribute various linux distros, Skype and even podcasts. Such things that are free.
      At the end of the day - just use tor :)
    • Murdats, on 05/17/2008, -1/+4TPB is the battleground for the bittorrent battle. this is partially because TPB mocks the MAFIAA so and they feel they need to prove themselves, its also because they have sunk so much money into them already and have bought enough people they probably feel as though they are getting closer to shutting down a legally operating site.

  • solidcube, on 05/17/2008, -3/+10What's he going to do, molest them to death? Seriously, is piracy of Michael Jackson albums a problem? Even back in 1983 or whatever, I remember being kind of weirded out by the Billie Jean video, the one where he was sitting on his bed in his jammies surrounded with stuffed animals et cetera. Something was seriously off about that guy even back in the 80s, and that's really saying something. Look at Flock of Seagulls for some perspective. Those guys seemed relatively normal at the time.

  • spydie, on 05/17/2008, -1/+16I LOVE their responses to all their lawsuits. Seriously, they are in a country where they can not be touched. When will these people realize that?
    • Murdats, on 05/17/2008, -0/+10legally american torrent sites cant be touched either, but since when has the MAFIAA cared about the law.
  • ChristBehemoth, on 05/17/2008, -3/+4he's probably just looking for some attention and publicity
  • taradisiac, on 05/17/2008, -0/+3Also time for the TPB guys to update their blogging service.
  • sh4d0w4lk3r, on 05/17/2008, -4/+2LOL wut?
  • Tenlow, on 05/17/2008, -3/+49UNLEASH THE ***** MOONWALK!
  • ArchAngel21x, on 05/17/2008, -0/+14He needs to use his money to pay debt rather than waste it fighting torrent sites.
    • tomis, on 05/17/2008, -0/+3This is the most grounded comment I've read on this entire page. Thank god some of us still have a grasp on reality.
  • Murrabbit, on 05/17/2008, -1/+8I think you forgot to add "hilarity ensues" at the end of the headline.
  • Pirataholic, on 05/17/2008, -0/+4I'm pretty sure he's just sueing because he needs money to buy "Neverland" back...

    check it out.

  • jamwil87, on 05/17/2008, -11/+7Michael Jackson lost his credibility when he gave THPS3 a 10.
  • mal1964, on 05/17/2008, -4/+8Ahoy Lass Moonwalk the plank!
  • Lassan, on 05/17/2008, -3/+6I'm not defending MJ or anything, but he's not the only one taking in the lawsuit. There's Prince and Bob Marley (I think) as well, and don't they deserve their fair share of abuse?
    • bxblox, on 05/17/2008, -1/+9Why would you abuse Bob Marley?...
    • Lhurgoyf, on 05/17/2008, -0/+13Bob Marley is dead, so I don't think it is exactly his choice.
      • Goblin, on 05/17/2008, -0/+1We're Marley and Marley, OOOoooooooo.
      • Chassit, on 05/17/2008, -1/+3And Prince is as washed up AND nearly as weird as MJ so...
        • digitul, on 05/17/2008, -1/+1prince is hardly washed up and im sure much more talented than your favorite musician
  • Liquidfire3240, on 05/17/2008, -0/+9The same "Web Sheriff" thats already on their legal page? The same one that got sent a faux invoice from TPB?
  • hollyminkowski, on 05/17/2008, -2/+23This is really lame...give it up MJ.
    I do have to admit that I feel VERY sorry for MJ.....something has seriously gone wrong with this very talented person. :-(
    • GreenAlien, on 05/17/2008, -0/+4Well a screwed up father, the media making him public enemy #1 and greedy families accusing him of being a child molester over the years probably hasnt helped his mental state. Opinionated people get an ego boost by trashing the top celebs and that won't change anytime soon.
  • itsbob, on 05/17/2008, -1/+24Why hasn't he sued someone for his face?
    • Chassit, on 05/17/2008, -0/+4A better question is why hasn't someone sued him for his face?
  • jaalin, on 05/17/2008, -0/+32he made thriller, man....
    thriller.
    • Goblin, on 05/17/2008, -0/+4Sure he might of touched some children, but come on. He's Michael Jackson. MICHAEL JACKSON!
      • Atomic1fire, on 05/17/2008, -0/+1the problem is he did so and probably got some thrillers out of it.
  • aliveonarival, on 05/17/2008, -4/+41who else just decided to download Michael's entire discography??
    • Lassan, on 05/17/2008, -2/+5I already have it all downloaded, so..
    • aliveonarival, on 05/17/2008, -2/+18who else just decided to download Michael's entire discography???

      ...


      Twice!
    • silfiriel, on 05/17/2008, -5/+1there were times i liked some songs of jackson, but not now, Sometimes I listen to a song that I really, really like and yet i feel a little bit disgusted by it.
      • Goblin, on 05/17/2008, -0/+8A common problem, confusing ethics with aesthetics.
    • TheKarmaPolice, on 05/17/2008, -0/+7download straight to recycle bin.
    • cliffski, on 05/19/2008, -1/+1immature kids like you?
    • NeedlerFanPudge, on 05/20/2008, -0/+1I downloaded Thriller a long time ago, and my opinion of the man does not go against the love of his music. I could listen to Billie Jean all day
  • kipmartin, on 05/17/2008, -8/+5is it me or he getting better looking every day?
  • username484767, on 05/17/2008, -5/+33dude isn't even human anymore, how can he do anything legal? He looks like ET
    • Olfster, on 05/17/2008, -4/+3Corporations are not human, but they have every right that you and I do, some, including I, would say they seem to have even more rights and privileges than an actual human. The only thing that can't seem to affect them is water-boarding. Get it? Water-BOARDING.... lol.
      • secrity, on 05/17/2008, -0/+1Buried for "Get it? Water-BOARDING.... lol."

        Need to find a plugin to bypass the new "no copy" java script feature in digg.
  • vivalagoat, on 05/17/2008, -8/+3Pft, ***** off jackson u queer.
