[pp.int.general] The Pirate Bay and the Pirate Party

[Glenn Kerbein]

Perhaps I should resurrect the initial inquiry. A friend of mine pointed
me to a great Latin phrase: Cēterīs paribus. It is used in philosophy to
examine an axiom or dynamic. ( See
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutatis_mutandis and
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceteris_paribus )
For a moment, let's assume that The Pirate Bay or BitTorrent weren't
apart of the equation. What would justify our purpose or existence? The
Free Culture movement certainly can, as can a large swath of students
and professors.
