A new political party has been started in Sweden pledged to abolish copyright laws

Guardian Unlimited Technology | Technology | Pirates pursue a political point:

The Copyright issue is not going to go away. This is from todays Guardian:

"Richard Falkvinge decided to start a political party at 8.30pm on New Year's Day. He hoped to get about 2,000 online suporters by February. In 36 hours he had 4,700, and had to temporarily shut the site.

Thus was born the Pirate party, Sweden's newest political organisation, marking the point at which file sharers moved from swapping songs to trying to change the political landscape in the next general election in September. Its ambition is simple: abolish copyright and patent laws."
