Website dumps files from Gottfrid Svartholm, co-owner of torrent site The Pirate Bay

A user on a deepweb forum has posted a thread that lays claim to a leak of data on The Pirate Bay co-owner Gottfrid Svartholm Aka Anakata.

The user has posted a short message and a link to file hosting site mega.co.nz that contains a 3gb zip file. After downloading and doing a quick check over the data it contains 1,903 Files, 291 Folders with a total size of 3.62gb.

The main folder has a mod date of 18/9/2017 but the main files have dates of 30/7/2013. The data within the leak appears to be a full backup of a personal device owned or operated by Gottfrid, with many of the files being personal including images, work and stuff like 'The Ultimate Fake ID Guide 2010 Version 7', you can see a full list of files here.

For now thats it, its new years day.
Enjoy 2018.
