 From Piratpartiet web site:

"/The Pirate Party wants to fundamentally reform copyright law, get rid 
of the patent system, *and ensure that citizens' rights to privacy are 
respected*. With this agenda, and only this, we are making a bid for 
representation in the European and Swedish parliaments.

Not only do we think these are worthwhile goals. *We also believe they 
are realistically achievable on a European basis*./"

You enjoy often using Piratpartiet as an example; however, when you 
state that privacy is not a PPI core issue, and that certain statements 
would supposedly be unrealistic ... who are you talking on behalf to? 
Not on behalf of Piratpartiet, not on behalf of PIRATA, probably not on 
behalf of any single pirate party, so ... on behalf of who? I don't what 
Swedish folks think about you considering some of their goals as 
/unrealistic/; from their web site, I guess they'll disagree.
