I can't really see anything getting better for those who buy hosting in Iceland with The Pirate Party.

Yes - It might sound appealing due to what is happening elsewhere with them, however in Iceland their main goals have absolutely nothing to do with hosting. They want to reestablish free health care, make the government more transparent, tackle corruption, get the public to be more directly involved with decisions.  Those are their main goals.

Not to mention, it is very unlikely that the pirate party will be in coalition government. The pirate party have openly admitted that they will not work with the independence party which got 29%. At least I think it is highly unlikely that they will have a chance at forming a coalition government without the independence party. Anyway, today and tomorrow is just for the leaders of every party to meet with the president. Will be interesting in the next few days.

Oh and, the pirate party have publicly stated that they do support of minority government of 3 other parties.

Doesn't sound very... piratey. I recant my previous statement. Generally the Pirate Party supports copyright reform and sharing of knowledge.


The Pirate Party is a movement that supports much much more than just Internet Neutrality. Things like civil rights, transparency, anti-corruption and this "list" is not exhaustive - Yes I am talking about the PPI (Pirate Party International). It doesn't mean that issues like Internet Neutrality are not being thought about, but the issues at hand now will obviously deemed more important. Issues like corruption if you remember the panama papers. Our f*cking prime minister. So technically, for hosting, you need to wait until probably few years until any change.

To the guy above me:
http://www.reformingcopyright.org/

It won't make it a safe heaven for trackers or sites. If a tracker is caught in Iceland where the sole purpose is to share copyrighted art work then of course it will be shut down. Same goes with sites.
What it changes is what you can do with your copy of the art. For example; Playing a movie in a fraternity party is either illegal or legal. The definition of `public` is not clear in U.S laws like the website above me is intended for. These are issues, it won't really make it any better for BitTorrent sites and trackers that share copyrighted artwork.

I always think you start to have a good point and then I finish reading your post.
