  • Pirate Codex

Pirates share knowledge. Information, education, knowledge and scientific findings are part of our shared cultural heritage and should be accessible to everyone. Pirates support an open share culture and free software, and a reform of copyright. On the other hand they respect also the work from the makers, and they are aware of the obstacles they encounter in the current system.

  • Values of the Pirate Party The share-culture

The Pirates see how the Internet among others has become a platform for fast, cheap share stuff. This sharing is done both in the real world (tools, vehicles, place to sleep, …) and in the digital world (video and audio clips, …).

The emerging circular share-economy offers opportunities for waste avoid, consume less and reduce our ecological footprint. In fablabs, maker spaces, pick farms and numerous communities build alternatives or hacks of global consumerism.

The access to knowledge, technology and culture is a fundamental civil right. The current legislation concerning intellectual property, copyright and patent however is blocking this access. The Pirates do not accept that large organizations abuse copyright patent in order to protect their own position and make a profit at the expense of the community. It is in the interest of the community to continue to build on the previous achievements in technology, science and art.

The Pirates recognize the importance of intellectual property for authors, artists, scientists or inventors: work and creativity they provide must be recognized and compensated. Pirates promote a curtailment of the copyright term (70 years after the death of the artist), in consultation with various representatives of the creative sector. In addition, the Pirates push forward the basic income as possible and investigate an alternative to the non-transparent artist status.

I put it here otherwise I'll forget, but it would be great if someone could follow up this : https://www.savetheinternet.info/demos

It's about the demonstrations that will be organized on 23/03 in Europe, I see there is one planned in Brussels! But I don't know who's behind etc. So if someone wants to get involved and share the info with us, it would be helpful :)

Dear european pirates,

as many of you might already have noticed we are currently preparing protests all over Europe to stop article 11 and 13 of the copyrightreform.

To do that we are working with many other partners but mainly with the activists from savetheinternet.info. To connect you national protests with the main campaign we would like you to join them on their discord where they offer a separate channel for each of the national protests. The activists are in very good contacts with a lot of big youtubers and other influencers and might be able to provide you with contacts. Also they have prepared materials some already in several languages using those might save you some work since it’s a lot to be done until the 23.03.

For your national Pirate Party to show up under the official call for action you need to send an email with your organisation name and logo (one that is visible on dark background) to [email protected].

For your Protests to Show up on the Map they need a facebook event with starting place and time.

If any pirates have any problems connecting or working with the activists from sti let me know I will try to troubleshoot then. The Power out of the Internet is finally arriveing and we pirates in the first lines. Lets use this opportunity right before the European elections which are so important for us!

He expects problems working with their activists? (I am OK with what I read on their website in English)
The website is in different languages and there are some differences...

No no, I think he just says we should contact him if there are problems, but he doesn't seem to expect problems.
