More on the Pirate Party and its message

I posted about the Swedish Pirate Party last weekend, but failed to follow all the links. It turns out there is a Pirate Party here in the US and that it has a website here. More interesting, Rick Falkvinge, the founder of the Swedish party has been in the US giving speeches. They are pretty strong statements of how broken the patent and copyright system is. You can see and hear Falkvinge in an hour-long statement of his and his party's views here. There is also a long Wikipedia entry on the party here.
