The Swedish government is having another crack at pinning responsibility for piracy on Sweden's top-level domain registry for .se, IIS. This spring a Swedish district court ordered two Pirate Bay domains at .se addresses to be handed over to the state, marking a major victory for long-time pirate-hunting prosecutor Fredrik Inblad.

While it cleared the way for prosecutors to pursue further .se domain seizures through the courts, the ruling didn't give the prosecution everything it wanted, holding that IIS wasn't liable for piracy even though it was fully aware the domains it leased facilitated piracy.
