<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Well there is now at least a statement
of the German Pirates:<br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://vorstand.piratenpartei.de/2012/09/20/stellungnahme-des-bundesvorstands-zur-buchveroffentlichung-klick-mich/">http://vorstand.piratenpartei.de/2012/09/20/stellungnahme-des-bundesvorstands-zur-buchveroffentlichung-klick-mich/</a><br>
<br>
could be worse, however it's mostly blabla and not really
explaining anything, besides it was not possible to do it
"Creatvie commons" or "fair use" (the only thing Julia was able to
negotiate was that the first warning does not cost anything) --- I
am deeply disappointed by the reaction, it basically says: we
don't care what the critics are saying, and they don't even
comment on the DMCA.<br>
<br>
I cannot see how the press can be good if the press basically says
pirates are liars, and pirates are corruptible, and pirates
getting profit from the laws they actually fight against...<br>
<br>
Of course you can still download it, but that’s not the point.<br>
<br>
The quality of the book itself is not the matter at hand, even
though the critics basically destroyed the book - I haven't read
it, and I do not plan to read it.<br>

Actually it is not disaster, it is simply<u> controversial</u> -
and media love it, as I've have read today (different 5 articles)
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I figured the book brings more value to Pirate parties then
this little controversy...this is just my opinion
(media-PR-marketing professional)</div>
<div>It is awesome for press. And it is good for Pirates also
becazse the book is promoting serving the Internet as a
lifestyle and Pirate party as its organic step forward in
defense of Internet freedom. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>However the book was downloadable until few days
ago....Hopefully the book will be translated into English and
Chinese ...oh wait, that would be a perfect world domination
plan :) </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I would suggest to take this easy, no harm can be done from
novels and art in general. Media are living out of controversy.
Pirates can only benefit from this kind of refined media
attention. It's art, and art is the final ladder in development
of human species.</div>
<div>I would be glad to have this book in South East European
languages as soon as possible. As I see it can easily be game
changer for generations that are not yet old enough to vote, but
hey..!<br>

<br>
A DMCA takedown notice from a pirate from a national the
board - it's unbelievable!<br>
<br>
Currently we sit tight here and hope we don't get any
attention in the newspapers. But it looks like the news is
out now, and international reports are coming in: Are there
any reactions planned? We could use some information to be
prepared.<br>
<br>
There was only one article so far in Switzerland, so maybe
it is keeping under the hood, but I think we should be
prepared.<br>
<br>
There is no reaction from the German pirates so far, I think
it's important that they take a serious step in cleaning up
this mess. It's really destroying all our reputation...<br>
<br>
