The Pirate Bay and the infamous Swedish pirates who run it have achieved worldwide notoriety - and they brag about it. This week the Pirate Bay said it now has 12 million peers. That's up from the start when only 10 people shared a few files. The increase in the number of peers has gone from 20% in 2004 to 25-30% in 2005 to 35% in 2006 to 40% in 2007 and now to 50% so far this year.
