Pirate Party comes to defence of Pirate Bay

Post by DeathStrike »

A Swedish political party that campaigns against restrictions for internet users said Tuesday it will provide internet access for the Pirate Bay file-sharing website.

"We got tired of Hollywood's cat-and-mouse game with the Pirate Bay and decided to offer the bandwith," said Rick Falvinge, leader of the Swedish Pirate Party.

The offer covers the website and its search engine, but not the so-called tracker function that allowed peer-to-peer networking where files were exchanged.

The files are not on the Pirate Bay website and are kept elsewhere, the Swedish Pirate Party said.
