A nine-year-old Finnish girl's computer was confiscated by the police
after she downloaded a track from the Pirate Bay. She was trying to
preview the new album by Chisu (she later bought the album and went to
the concert). The Finnish TTVK (Copyright Information and Anti-Piracy
Centre) demanded 600 Euros in summary fines from her family, along with a
gag order, and the family refused, so they sicced the police on them.
Events started when last year's october family's daughter tried to
preview to Chisu's new album. According to child's father, searches took
her to the Pirate bay. Next spring the father got a letter from TTVK
demanding 600 euros. TTVK's letter also demanded a nondisclosure. Father
didn't oblige, but instead, wrote a letter back to the attorney. Letter
included photographs of the bought album, and the tickets to the
concert, which her child attended.
According to
a TorrentFreak report, the confiscated machine was a Winnie the Pooh laptop.
