The Pirate Bay Ordered To Block Dutch Users.

[0]secmartin writes "In a totally unexpected ruling, a Dutch court has
decided that [1]The Pirate Bay should block visitors from the Netherlands
within 10 days or [2]face a fine of €30,000 per defendant per day. Peter
Sunde has already announced that he will appeal the ruling. Even though
the defendants sent a letter explaining that they were unable to come to
the hearing and provided arguments in their favor, these were [3]ignored
by the judge because they failed to appear in his court. The full text of
the ruling [4]was just published (in Dutch, PDF) by Peter Sunde, and
[5]further coverage is available at Forbes."
