Swedish Pirate Party Launches ISP

WillDraven writes "Torrentfreak is reporting that the Swedish Pirate Party has launched an ISP. Starting with 100 residents in a housing organization in the city of Lund, Pirate ISP hopes to gain 5% of the market in Lund before spreading to other markets. Headed by longtime Pirate Party member Gustav Nipe (video interview in English), the company aims to provide Internet service with the sort of guarantees one would expect from the Pirate Party. Most notable are the promises to keep no logs of subscriber activity and thus to provide no data to law enforcement or private corporations."

any traffic coming from IP ranges known to belong to the RIAA, MPAA, or constituent organizations.
IMHO, that would be doing exactly what their enemies are doing. Their purpose is to let users access the internet without restrictions. Not to wall-off those things they find evil.
