This is obviously going to become something many will support after being ripped off by big businesses for so long in the way of hardware levy's and stealth taxes to the cartels, who even now seek government subsidies while raking in massive profits.
http://www.parti-pirate.info/?page_id=17Here's their declaration folks.
We, French Internauts, presently observe the confiscation, by a few partisan and powerful groups, of the French Internet Domain, therefore leading to a prejudice for the vast majority of Internauts.
With the upcoming promulgation of the law about Author Rights - EUCD - , these rights being now seen as the enemy of the network and of the internauts, we demand the abrogation of the whole set of laws that define intellectual property on the French soil and encourage the internauts to forget these notions in their everyday lives.
The party also demands the legalisation of P2P networks for non-lucrative use as a natural consequence of the suppression of the author right.
The French Pirate Party plan 6 major reforms :
1 - > Total and unlimited liberty of speech
2 - > The end of the author rights as they exist in 2006
3 - > The right to browse anonimously on Internet
4 - > The legalization of P2P Networks when used in a non-lucrative purpose
5 - > The suppression of all taxes on empty hardware
6 - > Free Internet access to all
Spread the word folks, show your support
