Wikileaks Releases Docs Before Trial of TPB Founder Warg 70

Pirate Bay Founder Gottfrid Svartholm Warg is to be tried starting tomorrow in Sweden, after his indictment last month for computer hacking and fraud. Wikileaks has released several documents related to his detention and the associated charges. From the summary of this material: "This material includes inter alia the interrogations with GSW and his co-accused, internal correspondence from the Swedish Foreign Minister and the Swedish embassy in Cambodia, damage assessment reports by the companies and the authorities concerned, and correspondence between GSW and Kristina Svartholm and the Swedish prison authorities. The material is formally public, but the Swedish prosecution authority has refused to provide the documents in digital format. Photocopying this volume of paper costs around £350." Notable is the refusal of Warg's request to obtain a graphing calculator while in prison.

    In Sweden, these type of documents are accessible to the public, you just order them and pay an administrative fee. It's nice that Wikileaks releases the documents digitally tho.

    that was in the summary. that it costs 350 to get these in paper format since the prosecutor refused to give them in digital form...
