On netzpolitik.org, Markus Bekedahl the day after the federal election of 2009 video commentary (along with Julia Seeliger by the Greens and the FDP Gerhart Baum - may please be Home Secretary again?) Published. He called the Pirate Party is, like many before him, a single-issue party making the only power politics would do.
As my personal commitment from the Pirates alone was raised only because all other subject areas (internal security and civil rights), I had to tell Mark and I wrote the following commentary:
Dear Mark,
a shame that you have the single-issue phrase you used. Why is not the case I want to show the following topics list of Pirates:
- Network Policy (neutrality, development, free access)
- Homeland Security, in particular the monitoring degradation (offline, online, by phone on a PC on cameras - everywhere)
- Copyright & free access to culture (both on the Internet and offline)
- Education (free access to education, knowledge, information)
- Economic and Development Policy (revised patent system - in particular seed, Life & Software)
- Civil Rights (eg privacy, may be partly elements of the topics listed here already there)
This list is still expanding, but I think that is already apparent here is that the pirates do not represent a theme, but use of a model to many areas.
these values can also be extended to other areas and still be able to develop a consistent policy with it, but if that is good and beneficial for the main targets of the pirates I am not yet clear.
I would be happy if you continue with our goals more nuanced manner - or should constitute a strong case was first referred to as everything on a single topic.
Regards, John
PS: In the election campaign, "I am pirate" addressed many of these issues. Not just "Internet freedom" or "network policy".
I'm curious how he will react and whether this distorted perception of the pirates in the media will change in the near future.
