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.'"
Basically, this gives users the advantage of a Swedish IP address from anywhere in the world.
That's what I call massaging the numbers!
(Unfortunately,) I'll be here all week. Be sure to tip your waiter.FTA: "We got Dugg pretty hard and expect Slashdot to come visiting at any time now."

If it is commercial, couldn't the company' records be subpoenaed (in a worst case scenario) by state/local/etc authorities?

Ok, you are either copying me (your post id is one larger) or that is plain SCARY.

I get nervous when things world gets so tense that some people don't recognise a joke like this anymore...
X.
In the late 17th Century, Newton and Liebniz came up with Calculus almost simultaneously.
Now, in the 21st century, we have 'dcapel' and 'mincognito' with identical, +1 Insightful Slashdot posts simultaneously.
I call that progress.
It's now time for you two to sue the pants off of each other for copyright infringement.
Ready, set, call your lawyers...now!
um, that was supposed to be funny but i forgot to copy the formatting. but seriously, that was an amazing coincidence. 1 in a 1,000,000. other people win the lottery, i simultaneously post the same message to slashdot as dcapel.

You forgot to mention "think of the children!".
Great Intellect...
They just have a local copy/cache of piratebay.org
Why? So they can spend 3 weeks methologically "proving" that guns can't possibly work?
Slashdot gets worse every day... Pipedot: News for nerds, without the corporate slant
I applaud their honesty, but I'm not convinced on this "you pay us monthly, and we'll destroy the service" business model.

If I wanted a sig I would have filled in that stupid box.
You left out some important information; what's the name of your product? what does it do? and where can I download the crack?
Just following british custom here...
This is just down right, unamerican. 'If the government can check everything each citizen does, nobody can keep the government in check.' Its the governments job to watch over us and make sure we follow the teachings of jesus.
PPTP is where Indians go whizz.
I wouldn't admit to having read that particular trainwreck if I were you ;)
