Hi,
i see these two words "No copyright" at the bottom. May i ask you to tell me whether this is just the pirate party' slogan or your permission e.g. to translate your article without licence? Feel free to kill this little doubt for me, asap :) I already translated it and the pirates want to release the German version at their homepage, soon. (You have an AE spell checker on you HP, nice.)
Pirates might avoid to use "we" and "they" in terms of contour to confirm we are borderless and "can exist of all different opinions, backgrounds, religions, ethnicities, commercial interests or idealistic spirits": They do same as we do because they have no other chance to do so (see more later on).
And so we are in the middle of the discussion about pirate party's name. First, "We are pirates" is a romance declaration and equal to "I like and love to..." and "Me, too." There is no replacement for the word pirate, not even one thesaurus is close to tell what we dearly share. Since the political party emerges there are other connotations in addition to the historical ones:
-We wouldn't do any harm or crime unless traditional law is updated. We like upgrades and updates forasmuch no barrier is built.
-Killing people is last chance to maximize profit cause there are less humans to share money with; not an option for the peacefully pirate parties.
-"Are we ecological?" (@Harri Kivistö) Sure! We take advantage of what we have and do preservation of resources (esp. data and trees). We grow anywhere with almost less effort in each election.
-"Copy 'n' Paste" (no heist nor theft). We didn't print or press a button to tell what we like. When we click we share culture and freedom to everyone even when it is anonymous.
- Sharing culture and freedom makes everyone else happier. At least not the ones who are blind on that eye and behind the "dark force" at play.
Second, - as mentioned above - they have no other chance to behave like pirates do. Intellectual property has no peaceful future in the long term. It is against fundamental rights having a copyright on e.g. words. In the online environments words are easy spoken, listened, saved, archived and compared off the planet; esp. checked against former times let alone the offline times because of Moore's law. The later you are born the less copyrights you might develop (on your own). The better the lawyer the longer the copyright last (=> endless copyright: http://pirat.ly/69evu). The more intellectual properties the more barriers pirates have to level down. This is a growing economic sector. Why don't you hop on pirates movement for easy money as long as only a few does? Data protection, encryption, anonymisation of private and deletion of unwanted private releases...
For now, only intel services decides what is kept private and when it is not. The more secret services want to get into our heads the more companies assist them to look what you do between two data tracks. The better the hard- and software of intel assisting companies are the sooner others are downgraded to bot slaves and file sharing stations, technically spoken. So, the ones who fight most tremendous against pirates already are one of us:"Resistance is futile" (quote: Borg, Star Trek). They already do "Copy 'n' Paste" (every sector), nothing new, the research and development rate decreases (esp. start-ups) due to existing copyrights.
There is a silver lining at the horizon, the science magazine texted these days: http://pirat.ly/2g5ix
"In practice, however, Congress has traditionally extended the R&D [research and develop] credit for just one year, or a few, at a time."
R&D credit will extend to never ending. Already done in the US House of Representatives (32:0). An unlimited credit (time and sum) is like a donation. But who will pay for the credit at the end?
There will be this TTIP-ISDS thing grabbing the ESM (European Stability Mechanism). The fund will be emptied quite fast while copyright can be infringed more often from more people and even longer as things can be broken offline only once. But it is not yet the time to this while it is recommended that US-President should veto that bill and present his own: http://pirat.ly/x6q5w (US Gov. pdf-file)
There is one more thing to mention. People say: "What do pirates do for artists and others who make a living out of creativity? For those who have no Disney overlord at hand:
1. Pirates don't cut your income ever year while any other political party does it since you are born.
2. Since start, the pirates also do creative work, have hardly money, have lots of dreams and have to carry our "ideals and goals" into effect, step by step.
3. Pirates don't hinder your creativity with copyright fear, not or not proper licensed work.
4. We want to transfer (copyright) law into Creative Commons Icons, in easy understandable tongue.
We want you to get your data protected and your creativity back. It's on you to reclaim your live, vote the pirate party! Good luck and success to all pirate candidates!
