We call ourselves pirates because it is the word used by the copyright
industry to qualify people whose only "crime" is to share culture.

Many movements changed a pejorative nickname into something you could be
proud of, I think about Impressionism for example :

We are doing the same with the word "pirate".

Is there such a term used by the copyright industry in Iceland ?
