Pirate Party Releases Book of Pirate Politics

ktetch-pirate writes "If the SOPA/PIPA blackouts were a wakeup call to many people, then the U.S. Pirate Party has released a book that might help explain some of the issues. The book covers issues such as Corporate Personhood, the 4th Amendment, the history of copyright, and how DRM laws are made. There are even cartoons from Nina Paley throughout to add a bit of humor. DRM-free eBook versions are available to download from the book's site, or you can buy a paperback edition from Amazon for ten bucks." The book is under the CC BY-NC-SA, and features essays from the likes of Lawrence Lessig and Rick Falkvinge.

    I posted earlier using the same subject line........ just wasn't logged in. In case it didn't take I will say I don't like the use SOPA/PIPA to control how well we the people can organize and this is what it's really about. They are not interested in piracy, it is a prop to get what they really want. I will be posting on my pages bose videowave, bose videowave review, and videowave to make people aware of it's true intent. Write, call, or email them to let them know you don't want all the attachments.
