Swedish Pirates© form Political Party©

category international | politics / elections | other press author Monday January 09, 2006 13:36author by iosaf Report this post to the editors

A group of file sharers, rippers and burners, copier and pasters in Sweden have formed a new political party to stand in Swedish elections and fight intellectual property law.

I hope they will be copied. :-)©

We know the arguments, becuase we share them. No pun intended. You may not say an idea is your property. & to treat it as such, in a time of starvation and disease is evil.
https://www.piratpartiet.se/

Their founding manifesto is available here to read on their site which unfortuanately for most Irish readers in Swedish (the tongue of an tsulain) :-
https://www.piratpartiet.se/default.aspx?SplashRendered=true

Basically they want to ignore WIPO© , PT © and RIAA© . It is doubtful for the moment they will win seats, but still, they hopefully will help get the open source movement agenda across.& indeed they have now collected enough signatures to put themselves forward for election, so now only have to find 225,000 votes to get 4% of the electoral franchise and a seat.

You can help if you know a Swede.
Because unlike Irish people, Swedish citizens can postal vote. Swedish people speak english too, so you'll have no difficulties.

If you don't know what the open source movement is about, then...circumspecit.
look around you....
