Brief article:
http://www.tech.co.uk/computing/internet-and-broadband/news/pirates-take-over-anti-piracy-website?articleid=605538661

Old site, now owned by the pirate bay people
http://www.ifpi.com/ifpi/

Current site for IFPI
http://www.ifpi.org/

It's hard to explain to lay people how a legitimate global association of large companies can't legally get back their website from a small group of citizens who publicly incite others to break copyright laws.

The article makes no mention of a court case, but what can IFPI do?
