Antipiracy = terrorism?

The torrenttracker/site swebits is down. Most of you who tend to use this site has most likely noticed the nice sign at the door regarding first, a DDoS attack and then faulty hardware in servers abroad wich makes it a little harder to fix. Heres a swedish article about it: http://www.expressen.se/nyheter/1.2349481/fildelningssajt-har-lagts-ned And just like the terror organisations in middle east, out comes Henrik Ponte’n and claims responsability. To me, its a little... Read More

Cant feel good over success?!?

Well, as you know I keep a lookout for things that might interrest me in several ways and recently, a personal object of distaste goes out and says he cant feel good about about things he has succeeded with, but instead, he feels bad about things that didn’t go his way, the article is found here: http://www.expressen.se/noje/extra/1.2058648/thomas-bodstrom-avslojar-sin-livssorg Now, I wouldn’t feel good criminalizing about 75%  of the youth population and on top of... Read More

View through my glasses

Yesterday, while on a train ride home I got asked on my political views since I am wearing a pirate party keychain. Well, I explained to him that yes, my vote will go to the pirate party. And the person more or less exploded in my face demanding to know how I could vote for a ”one-issue party”. Well, then came a nice little diatribe about stealing artists material, freeloader, etc etc etc. I let him ramble on for a while and simply stated that I couldnt care less about... Read More

ACTA, …. (All Control To America)

OK, we tried to protest against FRA… nothing happened, the law was passed and its now in effect. We tried to protest to IPRED …. to no avail. Now ACTA is starting to creep in, and people dont seem to care!? Ok, many people dont seem to grasp the effect of ACTA, the new trade ”agreement” between EU and US, but one of the things it is stating is that after three illegal downloads, you are to be completely shut out from the internet. HELLO! I am not sure how... Read More

1984, in your computers today

Well, today is the day when the swedish government will be able to monitor all traffic that is going to cross swedish servers (i wonder how long it will take for them to realize that MOST things that goes over the internet will go abroad…. i do hope they have plenty of storage space) so, as of today I will start giving some tips on how to protest this idiocity, in a few easy steps. First up, for you bloggers. Unless you are doing like me and hosting your own servers, you... Read More

Anarchy on the internet, APBstyle

Here we go. You, yes you there, who said those who told stories of how anti piracy firms would go haywire and throw threats to left and right were all doomsday profets. Have you eaten your crow for today? If not, get your salt and pepper ready because here comes some more for you to put on your plate, together with your integrity, hopes and freedom. The swedish Anti Piracy Bureu(sic?) has sued the site swetorrents.org and that in itself, might not be such a strange thing. Now,... Read More

Why? (A ranters confessions on IPRED and FRA)

In a mail today I got a little comment. ”Why are you against the ipred law, are you one of those pirates?” Well, maybe I am, maybe I’m not. That really isn’t what my ranting is about, what I am going on about is the fact that the swedish government has shown a complete and utter blatant disregard for peoples wishes, integrity and privacy. You see, before IPRED and FRA, you needed a suspicion to be under scrutiny from authorities, and frankly, that was OK... Read More

Politics, politics and politics. (Survey inside)

You all know the drill. When I start to talk about politics, there is usually a rant in the making and this time is no different then the previous ones. Most of you have read my thoughts in regard if the FRA and IPRED laws and knows my standpoint. If not click HERE It’s really  not that complicated to understand that: Yes, I want artists to get paid and NO, I do not think the government has anything to do with my inbox or sent box. Pherhaps they do, but I dislike the fact... Read More

Look before you leap

It appears that the right wing parties has understood that they have put both the left AND the right foot into their mouth with voting through this FRA law, and now, Sten Tolgfors has jumped up on top of his soap box and is claiming that since the vote is done, he is now the new alphamale. or in light of this discussion, is that AlphaMail? Anyhoo, he is standing there like another short little man did in the 1940s, and declaring that he will take no alternatives. Doesn’t... Read More

I usually dont write in swedish but..

I really cant be arsed to translate both of these articles. So, heres what Expressen has to say today. Tolgfors: Inga kompromisser Det blir inga fler kompromisser när tilläggen till FRA-lagen ska klubbas i höst.  Det beskedet ger försvarsminister Sten Tolgfors till Expressen. Därmed nobbar han centerpartisternas ansträngningar för att begränsa spionlagen. - Det har gjorts en uppgörelse mellan fyra partiledare, säger Sten Tolgfors. I går berättade Expressen att en... Read More
