LimeWire Acquires Fyre Festival Brand

LimeWire, once notorious for fueling online piracy, has acquired the rights to the infamously disastrous Fyre Festival brand. 'LimeWire Acquires Fyre Festival Brand -- What Could Possibly Go Wrong?' the company titled its news release.

LimeWire said it would 'unveil a reimagined vision for Fyre -- one that expands beyond the digital realm and taps into real-world experiences, community, and surprise.' No additional details were announced about the relaunch.
