The idea of a data haven isn't as innovative as some are saying; the term was coined by Bruce Sterling in a 1988 novel, and, by the way, there actually already is a data hosting company operating from Sealand (called HavenCo).
That being said, I can't see the idea of the Pirate Bay buying Sealand as anything more than a joke. I mean, I'm pretty sure it is a joke, because even if we ignore everything else that's absurd about the idea, how on earth do they plan to obtain the many millions of dollars required for this? From dontions of people who download a lot of copyrighted material illegaly?
Jam it back in, in the dark.
