I think this article is jumping the gun ... Give it time ... I hadn't even heard of this show, and so obviously wasn't even looking for it ... And if it is in Swedish, I'll also have to wait for the complete English subtitles before I can watch it. (And personally, I've found that pirated TV shows / movies that are not English are, in general, difficult to find online).

I literally found it in two seconds on one of the most popular non-legit streaming sites. Checked two others, and it's there as well.
The article author has no idea what they're talking about.
I may be ignorant, but streaming is not the same as torrenting, and The Pirate Bay is known for the latter.
They are technically different. I also found The Pirate Bay on a torrent site straight away (1337x).
Streaming plays straight away like youtube. Torrents you generally have to download first using bittorrent like software. Though it blurs a bit with software like Popcorn Time.
Not ignorant. Definitely overpedantic.
The Pirate Bay is known for its championing piracy, in general. Those streaming sites are piracy. They also usually use the same source videos as those found on torrent sites; if not outright acting as a thin media player on top of torrents, in some cases.
I live in sweden. I can download it with subtitles and just google translate it to english. I have done it on the first episode. Link: https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x98u9ie

you can couple a torrent service with something like put.io and now it's a streaming service =p
The author is writing a promo piece, which is, if you can read subtext, instructing you to do what you just did.
Let me break it down.
1. Tell the internet via the #1 torrent/free-info news site, that it's really difficult to find this show.
2. Let the internet do what it does. i.e. find the show, spread the show.
The article was published over 5hrs before your comment, do you know when those sites added the episodes?
They want to talk about the series so the article isn't really jumping the gun. The title is just their hook.
Side question: there is an undocumented and free Google Translate API. Is there a similar one for transcription?
I have one I made which you feed a video file and uses a paid transcribe/Translate service to spit out subtitles, but I would love a free one, even if crappier...
Any reason why not running transcription locally? Whisper is pretty nice and can spit out timestamped srt or vtt.
