Pirate Bay Co-founder Peter Sunde Running For European Parliament

Posted by Unknown on from the lyndon-larouche-2016 dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Peter Sunde aka brokep of TPB fame is going to run for European Parliament in 2014, as a Finnish Pirate Party candidate. As he still has a prison sentence to serve in Sweden, he might have to campaign from behind bars. 'Amusingly, the Pirate ticket in Finland could have been even bigger than it is now. Sunde informs TorrentFreak that he also reached out to Finnish-born Kim Dotcom to join the race, but the Megaupload founder currently has other priorities.'"

    Dear Anonymous Coward:

    Better late than never; in reply to by Anonymous Coward on Monday April 15, 2013 @04:01PM (#43455093) :

    We are discussing "many other workplaces". HTH

    The point http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=3632275&cid=43410689 was: why to discuss whether the Google idea of productivity is a bad fit for "many other workplaces" or not if you have no idea what you are talking about?

    Those who never have been with Google do not really know the ground truth about life at Google. Those who are with Google at the moment of this writing are not going to speak up here (at least to say anything contrary to rosy pictures) if they want to keep working for Google. Those who left had signed NDA and still may hold Google shares, etc.

    Thanks.
