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."
How about when someone posts online that they plan to go shoot up their school the next day?
Straw man. The relevant analogy would be police being able to enter my house with a warrant.
But isn't it better to trust people with freedom than to treat everyone like criminals?
But think of the children! All those young, innocent and mostly helpless fragile little children. Then, good sir, then you look me in the eye and YOU tell me that you didn't rape and murder that 16 year old girl we all know you where molesting about five years back.... Come on, the nation, no... the whole world is waiting.... SaY it DAmN YoU! CONFESS! I SAID CONFESS SINNER, CONFESS or embrace the fires of HELL instead of those of stake!
You are pathetic.
I was going to make a real reply, but you are such a sniveling coward of a person that I really can't be bothered.
Conversely, how will you feel if someone says that they intend to walk into the school your child attends and shoot it up -but they can't be traced because there are no logs?
Would you be happy if people are able to coordinate planting bombs in a subway and can't be stopped because they cannot be connected to a real-world identity?
With freedom comes accountability, otherwise freedom falls to the thug with the largest gun and the most righteous jihad.
Anonymity needs to have limits -when your right to be anonymous infringes on people's right to peace and well-being, then you lose the right to hide behind your keyboard.
Tell that to the people who died on 9/11, the kids who died in columbine and/or Dunblane and the victims of the sarin attack in Tokyo.
Moron.
"sniveling coward-shit"
Another angry pirate desperate to defend the immoral free ride.
Back in my day, we had a handful of FTPs in my city serving SOME illegal content to a select few users who were deemed trustworthy enough to be given access. And that was it. No torrents, no rapidshare, barely any p2p. Today, everybody just HAS to have all the illegal content, right now. And if they don't they will take it up with the parliament or the president or whoever. Fucking entitlement brats.
I'm not trolling, I've just got opinions that differ from most. I'm okay with that. I do honestly believe that there are certain things in this world that the majority of people will agree are immoral, though the difference between moral and immoral is analog.
Under the Banner of Heaven is a good example. Killing someone because God told you to might make it morally right to YOU, but not to the majority of people.
Someone flopped a steamer in the gene pool.
The premise for this discussion was that certain things would be considered immoral without being illegal. I don't know where you live, but most countries actually forbid you to kill people, even if God told you to.
Find a better example.
May we live long and die out
