Sweden Charges Man in Movie Copyright Case Online

A Swedish prosecutor has charged a man with making a movie available for download from his computer, the first such case in the Nordic country as it clamps down on sharing copyrighted material over the Internet. The case follows a raid earlier this month by Swedish bailiffs and police on Internet firm Bahnhof, in search of pirated music and films, which drew applause from Hollywood but sparked fierce debate over confidentiality rights and file sharing.
