PirateBay.org Wants to Be Own Country

January 12th 2007 | General

Want to avoid copyright laws completely? Become your own nation… The owners of PirateBay.org plan to move their operation over to [the man-made island called] Sealand so that they can remain separated by any foreign government jurisdiction. Of course, there’s one main reason why this is in the works to begin with and it all has to do with avoiding copyright laws. According to the PirateBay.org group:

"With the help of all the kopimists on Internets, we want to buy Sealand. Donate money and you will become a citizien. We’ve set up a forum to discuss how the country is supposed to function. It should be a great place for everybody, with high-speed Internets access, no copyright laws and vip accounts to The Pirate Bay."
