“The Pirate Party started in Sweden in 2006, and it only had one agenda: to change draconian copyright laws. But it's changed and shifted primarily because the questions of human rights and cyber have become much more relevant. So if you want to place it somewhere on the spectrum, I would say it's a party that has its roots in civilian rights. But we are not like many left parties that want to regulate citizens and create nanny states. We believe that regulation should be on the powerful, not the individuals.” IfsWantShouldBelieveHumansStatesLawIndividualLeftPowerfulPartyRightsChangedCitizensRootsHuman RightsAgendasRelevantRegulationCiviliansSpectrumPirateCopyrightSwedenCyberNanniesCopyright LawDraconian Author:Birgitta Jonsdottir
