Pirate Party Launches Commercial Darknet

CrystalFalcon writes "The Swedish Pirate Party has launched a commercial, high-capacity darknet, on an unprecedented scale and bandwidth. This service lets anybody send and receive files anonymously without being tracked or traced. 'There are many legitimate reasons to want to be completely anonymous on the Internet,' says Rickard Falkvinge, chairman of the Pirate Party. 'If the government can check everything each citizen does, nobody can keep the government in check.'"

    Nobody, because you just removed their incentive.
    Go read "economics for dummies" to see how capitalism works, or admit to being a communist. Your choice. I'm not insulting you, thats communism, go look it up.

    Current copyright law is too severe, but arguing that the concept is wrong just makes you look silly.
