The world's largest 'bit torrent tracker' site, The Pirate Bay, is planning to buy its own nation in an attempt to circumvent international copyright laws.

According to a website set up to secure the purchase of Sealand, Pirate Bay plans to give citizenship of the micronation to anyone willing to put money towards the purchase.

I guess people will do anything to not pay itunes a buck or two to see the new episode of Battlestar Galactica.
