The plan by Swedish-based file-sharing organisation PirateBay.org to purchase the self-declared micronation of Sealand has been flatly rejected by ‘Prince’ Michael Bates. Speaking in a CBC television interview, Bates made it clear he was against file sharing. “It’s theft of proprietary rights, it doesn’t suit us at all,” he said. “In fact, I’ve written a book and Hollywood is making a movie out of it, so it would go right against the grain to go into the file sharing thing.”Watch the CBC InterviewMore on this story:Swedish file-sharing website plans to buy Sealand
