The Pirate Party @ Darklight 2009
We’re delighted to welcome Anna Troberg from Sweden’s Pirate Party to Dublin for our Keynote Discussion Event @ Darklight 2009, 2019 AC: After Copyright.
This event is presented in association with BANTER.
It is October 2019, and the copyright wars are over… Who won? Who lost? Does anyone care any more? A lively discussion from first principles about how the creative landscape might look 10 years hence, addressing THE hot button topic of the hour. Darklight welcomes Anna Troberg, the Vice Chairman of the Swedish Pirate Party, to Dublin: running on a platform for copyright and patent reform, The Pirate Party received 7.1% of the vote in the recent European Elections, securing the party its first seat in the EU Parliament. At present, The Pirate Party is the third biggest political party in Sweden; its meteoric rise has inspired a number of similar parties with the same name and goals in a number of EU countries, including Ireland.
Joining Anna in conversation is Irish Times journalist and blogger Jim Carroll.
