Groups Vs Networks: The Class Struggle Continues. It's a genuine pleasure to be here in New Zealand.

Groups Vs Networks: The Class Struggle Continues

I've traveled all the way from Stewart Island up to Northland and this is an astonishingly beautiful country. I come from Canada. I don't say stuff like that lightly because we're pretty proud of our beauty in Canada, but this is a place that is relentlessly beautiful. I took the bus from Auckland to Wellington a couple of days ago and people sort of looked at me like I was nuts. But – New Zealand has a desert. And, you know, I jumped the tour and took the bus and discovered a desert and that's sort of like a metaphor for life or something. As the introduction said, I have been on the road a long time. And I saw what they call cattle-boys and what cattle-boys are, they're people who tend to their herd of cattle and the herd of cattle is 12, 15 cows and they sit on their horse. And, you know, having seen their mountains, I don't blame them.

How the Swedish Pirate Party Platform Backfires on Free Software

They all call for reducing copyright power, but the specifics vary. This issue may not apply to the other parties' positions. The bullying of the copyright industry in Sweden inspired the launch of the first political party whose platform is to reduce copyright restrictions: the Pirate Party. Its platform includes the prohibition of Digital Restrictions Management, legalization of noncommercial sharing of published works, and shortening of copyright for commercial use to a five-year period. I support these changes, in general; but the specific combination chosen by the Swedish Pirate Party backfires ironically in the special case of free software. The GNU General Public License and other copyleft licenses use copyright law to defend freedom for every user.

The Pirate Party (Piratpartiet) said that it is tired of being deemed a criminals and terrorists by the system for sharing a few measly files for no financial gain or loss to anyone. In its manifesto, here, which is in Swedish, the party says that it is against seeing the developing world starve because the developed world refuses to share its intellectual property.

Its massage is that corporations are engaging in racketeering in the developing world and a few power hungry individuals and greedy corporate entities are infringing on privacy and integrity. Piratpartiet says that it will strike out immaterial law, ignore WIPO and WT, and annul any further treaties or policies that hinder the free flow of information. They will refuse to allow data retention nonsense based on terrorism claims or failed RIAA business models. Pirate Party. History[edit]

Pirate Party

== Free Culture == Pirate Party Declaration of Principles/4.0. The Pirate Party believes that people with access to free communication, culture and knowledge grow, feel better and work together to create a better and more humane society for all to live in.

Pirate Party Declaration of Principles/4.0

We see that modern information technology create new possibilities for people to themselves take control of their lives and to help in influencing the development of society. We see how a freer flow of information lets both thoughts, cultural creativity and economy grow. For these possibilities to succeed, and for us to not have to become imprisoned within increasing control and supervision, we require two fundamental changes in attitude from the people in charge: The government must start trusting its citizens, show them greater respect and give them greater freedom. People met with suspicion will respond with suspicion. People met with harshness will respond with harshness. People treated like criminals risk becoming criminals. 1.

After 5 years, I'm stepping down as Party Leader. Everything that has a beginning has to move on at some point.

After 5 years, I'm stepping down as Party Leader

Today, I am stepping down as leader of the first Pirate Party to move on to other duties. It has been the most extraordinary journey of my life, together with the most brilliant people I’ve had the privilege of working with. Building a hierarchical organization on participatory culture with tens of thousands of individualists who distrust authority has been something of a… challenge. But, in hindsight, we have accomplished miracles together. Miracles so large that we have gotten used to coverage on media like CNN, BBC, Russia Today and al-Jazeera. Pirate Party (Sweden) The Pirate Party (Swedish: Piratpartiet) is a political party in Sweden founded in 2006.
