Great article, just one major inaccuracy concerning the Pirate Party:

> they have a silly name and their focus seems to be solely on ‘sharing culture’ at the expense of everything else.

Then you go on to say:

> What we need in this country is a protest party that campaigns on the issues of Internet privacy, censorship, copyright/patent reform and computer misuse laws.

The Pirate Party campaigns precisely on these issues. For those that think the Pirate Party is just focused on protesting against unfair monopolies, please look up their actual ideas.

A good illustration is given on Rick Falkvinge's blog:
