Pirate Party of Chile

The Pirate Party of Chile (Spanish: Partido Pirata de Chile) is a political party yet to be approved by the national Electoral Service (SERVEL). The party was created in 2007 based on the model of the Swedish Pirate Party, founded in 2006 by Rick Falkvinge.[1] The name refers to the concept of digital pirate, trying to take the negative name that the Internet practice of illegal downloading and sharing is called, and transform it into a constructive movement for culture.
