Where have you seen him reading it? Definitely not in that photo.

Oh, so the room that is carefully made to his image as you imagine it, somehow by pure chance includes a thousand-page A4 tome on physiology in Polish? Because Swedish hackers are known for their love for Polish university textbooks as decoration, of course.

How do you know it is his room?
You’re doing an awful lot of speculation to get your point valid.

The title of the photo is:
Gottfrid Svartholm, one of the co-founders of The Pirate Bay in his work station
So it follows that it’s his room?

Your trolling is too fat. Try trolling more subtly.

I have books in languages I don’t or barely understand, some in topics I know fuck all about. Does that disbar me from being the nationality that I am?
Is this an American comment that I’m too European to understand?
Like… wtf, people can’t own books in other languages now?
Who’s to say he doesn’t know Polish? Who’s to say it’s even his and not a family member’s?
This is such an arbitrary and meaningless detail to pick up on in an attempt to disprove the legitimacy of a photograph of a guy who looks very likely to be Gottfrid, that it reeks of anti intellectualism.

You pulled plenty of your ass there, so indeed I imagine it does reek where you are.
