Ooo Ah make RIAA walk the plank A BUNCH of Swedish file sharers have got together to form their own political party. 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. The new party, wants to break the four per cent barrier (225 000 votes) this autumn to take up seats in parliament. Even if they the party gets no-one elected, it is clear that it does represent a backlash against copyright protection laws and the antics of the RIAA and its ilk. source: http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=28671 website https://www.piratpartiet.se/
I hate recordcompanies, RIAA people should be kicked out from our country, but I'm not sure if Piratpartiet will allow people to steal my site concepts or domain names, so I'm not going to join them, sorry I think that they however have a great potential since swedes are one of the most pro-filesharing people in the world.
I think this was bound to happen. I hate that annoying advert whenever I rent a DVD. Piracy funds terrorism and organised crime - what the hell? Yeah, because selling £5 DVD out of a car boot makes more money than drugs and/or other illegal substances? RIAA needs to wake up, the way that advertising agencies recognise that the modern day consumer is more switched on to typical advertising methods, the RIAA must adapt too. They can't honestly tell me that terrorists attacks have a direct or indirect link to someone buying a pirate DVD.
The author of that article, Nick Farrell, needs to get an editor to review his work. "deemed a criminals" "Its massage" Since I'm nitpicking, I might as well criticize Latehorn also. I can only assume that you're talking about the Piratpartiet when you say "they" in the second half of your sentence. The way you wrote it, the sentence implies you're talking about the RIAA. It made me wonder why the RIAA would allow people to steal your stuff. Retribution perhaps.
Yeah, I meant Piratpartiet, LOL Anyway.. our anti-filesharing agencys website(www.antipiratbyran.com) has been hacked several times and the head of the organisation, Henrik Pontén has also been threated with death a several times. Let's hope that other countries wake up and form a resistence. I think that only somewhere around 0.01%(including people that sell CDs) of the people actually earns money on this while the rest suffer from those stupid filesharing laws. Opposition should therefore come from all the resisting 99.99% part of the people.
That is so cool. I really like that idea a lot. The RIAA and MPAA are pieces of trash, and I hope they get what they deserve. Walk the plank you pieces of trash!
