This is what a criminal

In support of the founders of Pirate Bay currently on trial in Sweden, Norwegian political party Rødt (Red) has launched the "This Is What A Criminal Looks Like" campaign. The campaign's theme is that "file-sharing is good, allowing people to share music, movies and culture."

Rødt sees the Swedish court case as yet another attempt by the music and movie
industries to stop "technological innovation and development by force". But it's not the people behind Pirate Bay who have
shared files; it's the millions that use their site. So visitors to at filesharer.org are encouraged to upload a picture and show the music industry and world "what a criminal looks like".
