Pirate Movement is Dead says Pirate Bay founder Sunde

Peter Sunde, founder of The Pirate Bay announced the death of the movement and urged followers to abandon piracy, and fight surveillance:

Quote:

fuck the ?pirate movement?. Rename it, re-brand it, do whatever you want. Just fucking don?t be a pirate. Be something more awesome. Be a world citizen that cares about the same topics.

the ?service? provided by The Pirate Bay and similar sites is not anything like a foundation for social change. Forget that digital theft of popular media is illegal, immoral, and rude; it?s also far too pedestrian to serve as a catalyst for political action that would effectively contend with a thorny problem like surveillance or ascend such lofty heights as universal education.

In the past, I?ve made snarky statements like this: some American teenager illegally downloading a Thor movie is not how one speaks truth to power.

It's a fun read. If only content pirates would all read it!

I guess the ISIS hackers got to him :2 cents:

haha...nice try at rebranding.

I can really see a bunch of snotty nosed punk pirates becoming activists. How will they have the free time to watch every season of Buffy The Vampire Slayer they just downloaded?

Amazing how a little time in custody can change a persons views, eh?

Now they'll be pirating big banks and likes of the Pentagon.... More money in that then in "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" DVD rips :thumbsup

I hear the current pirate bay is not even close to the old one.

I have heard of incarnations of The Pirate Bay being run by the authorities, like the new versions of the Silk Road.

wow, so now you all look like you are surprised ... and what the fuck you think are the prisons for? :2 cents: welcome to the reality ... :2 cents: :upsidedow

So....I cannot get that torrent of Star Wars downloaded now or what? Confused.

I met Sunde once on some interactive conference, he is cool guy, believe him what he says, not the media what say about him, totally support him, and every same thinking peepz

You believe that stealing people's property and giving it away for free is courageous and something to "totally support"?

Nice to know.
