Pirate Bay Prosecution Law Firm Under Attack
Advertisements [?]
During the Pirate Bay trial Monique Wadsted represented several major movie studios and called for a “very significant” prison sentence for the defendants. This didn’t go down particularly well with some Pirate Bay supporters and now, in a retaliatory move, a few of them have now taken down her law firm’s website.

Taking on The Pirate Bay in court seems to be asking for trouble. A few days ago the IFPI’s website was DDoSed by a group of Pirate Bay supporters. Now MAQS, movie industry lawyer Monique Wadsted’s site, has been targeted and taken down.

The DDoS attack against the IFPI website was part of Operation Baylout which also encouraged people to send black faxes to movie industry lawyer Monique Wadsted. We don’t know if her fax machine survived, but Wadsted’s law firm’s website is now out of business also.

Mayhaps the "very significant jail time" hit a nerve. They may never have a website again.
