The Pirate Party needs to become a world wide movement.

We have power in numbers.

Yes, that is my real email-address! Tonight, i had the “fortune” to meet a real believer of the mainstream-press. The problem, i knew this men half my life… Tonight, i realized, that people, who think for themselfes, are no longer accepted in this society. This is no chatter of someone with to much time on his hands – no, this is an outcry to people, who have the ability, to follow a movement, that will bring down this system to it’s knees. I don’t want to hear them grey mice complaining – i wan’t people, who whant this land, rotten with corruption, to burn. This text is no joke, no scam – this is the last opportunity to fight for freedom! Thanks.

I am sorry for my bad english – please, correct that text and copy it. Thank you!

this is true, just recite the pledge of allegiance……yet so many Americans can recite this but still think its a democracy…lol

That’s just not true.

The fact is, we have in the last 10 years made leaps and bounds away from civil liberties and towards big brother across the world in very sad, meaningful ways. There are cameras on our streets, there are wiretapping laws and anti-terrorist laws that basically strip ANY suspect of their constitutional rights and completely changing the game. Many times the “in dubio pro reo” base assumption of innocent until proven guilty has been inverted and the defendant needs to prove his innocence instead.
Our whole system is crumbling because of fear, lack of education and morals in the political substance and a general disconnect between ruling powers and voters.

As it is now, you have a freshly passed law in Germany that allows ISP and prosecutors/police to cooperate in such a way that if you are suspected of clicking a webpage more than once on purpose, and that webpage is on a “contains childporn”(which they define and nobody has public insight into, obviously) blacklist, they can, in realtime, link your IP back to your identity because the ISP signed/agreed to cooperation and start a case SOLELY based on the attempt of accessing a webpage and the proof of burden that this was an accident rests COMPLETELY on YOU.

So anyone who knows what a tinyurl is, a webpage with frames or redirection, or a html can guess what happens if you send someone a preformatted homepage/url/mail with the REAL target being one of the sites on this blacklist.

For the technologically challenged:
This law that is SUPPOSEDLY for protecting against childporn(which is ridiculous to begin with, as it deals solely with webpage access and nothing about stopping it in the real world) can be simply used to get people into real trouble and deep sh1t if you can get them to open a mail or click a link or visit a webpage.
It doesn’t get more complicated than that, a simple attempt to access will suffice and suddenly YOU have to make up a way of proving that it was someone else that made you visit that page and not on purpose.

I’m sorry, but that is just deeply, deeply disturbing and a 100% abuse of political power to do something that has completely no benefit whatsoever except for enabling further censorship and control measures over a society.

These things are why you need someone computer/internet/IT literate in the government, not just because some kids like their music free.

For people to get pissed off enough to elect a member of a single-issue party is rare. It’ll send a crystal clear message:

Passing crappy laws to try and prop up a dying business models is NOT acceptable in a democratic society. It WILL cost you votes.

Pirate Party FTW!!!

Obviously you have done no research..

here are hundreds of little bands trying to scrape a living out of music and it’s guys like Pirate Bay that ensure they get no money out of it. If this continues there will be no money in music unless you have big money backing from the big four. End result…? All the small alternative bands jack it in for 9-5 jobs, we end up with a load of manufactured pop bullshit in a cultural wasteland akin to watching X-Factor repeats ad infinitum.

It’s so wrong im not even going to bother posting a response to it.. You obviously haven’t been on the Internet very long.. Unfortunate but we all must remember there are many people who cannot afford internet services even these days.. When they do indeed retain services they bring their preconceived opinions with them… Sad but this is the case of poster #70…

or heaven forbid, torrents?

Transparency in politics? It’s more likely than you think.

“65/Obama Fail”

Actually, it was 66 … child, you fail right from the start.

“Rofl, I like it how you use crazy videos to justify crazy opinions.”

And I like how you call something “crazy” without offering any evidence to the contrary … the inexperienced imbecile has broken every campaign promise … would you like me list them for you, or are you capable of using Google without me holding your hand?

“How about you actually educate yourself using books and libraries instead of funny videos on the internet?”

One needs to “educate” oneself using “books and libraries” in order to highlight his voting record, his unwavering support for the status quo, his broken campaign promises, his numerous ties to Wall Street, Hollywood and the establishment? The video simply points out the obvious … only an indoctrinated fool who chooses to close his eyes will find it “funny.” Once again, try that Google thing … do a little research, use your brain … oh, and turn off that HD propaganda machine where you get your nightly fix of Hollywood-approved disinformation.

“You know, stuff with actual depth and reason.”

And what Acorn funded publications would you like to recommend? Do you even have the slightest clue of what the heck I’m talking about? Seriously, you sound like the type of cretin who actually believes that there’s a “hole” in an ozone “layer” … but the point which you obviously missed was simply this: pirates MUST get on the same page politically if we are to succeed in the US, Europe, Asia and everywhere else. Allow me to reiterate for the benefit of someone with a short attention span like yourself … while I hope that the cited Swedish newspaper is correct in its prediction (and that many more political victories will follow), it’s not going to amount to squat if Pirate Parties support or endorse current tools of the establishment. Got it, now … or should I draw you a pretty diagram with rainbows and unicorns? <3
