Pirate Party is a label adopted by certain political parties around the world.[1] Pirate parties support civil rights, digital rights, internet freedom, direct democracy (including e-democracy) or alternatively participation in government, reform of copyright and patent laws to make them more flexible and open to encourage innovation and creativity (opposition to patent-based monopolies), use of free and open-source software, free sharing of knowledge (open content and open access), information privacy, transparency, freedom of information, free speech, anti-corruption, net neutrality, importance of cybersecurity and protecting digital infrastructure from threats, decentralized technologies and platforms, strong encryption and anonymity to protect personal data and individual privacy both online and offline from mass surveillance, censorship and Big Tech's misuse.[2][3][4][5][6][7]
Their libertarian philosophy is based on the idea that the Internet is a public space where individuals can access, share, and create content freely without government censorship or control. They argue that interference by governments and large IT corporations on cyberspace infringes on the right to live as one wishes, without fear or coercion, and that citizens should have the right to express their opinions freely and without restriction, even if those opinions are controversial or unpopular.
The Pirate Party's focus on these ideas aligns well with the principles of civil libertarianism and cyberlibertarianism.[8]
While the name pirate party originally alluded to online piracy, members have made concerted efforts to connect pirate parties to all forms of piracy, from pirate radio to the Golden Age of Pirates.
Pirate parties are often considered outside of the economic left–right spectrum or to have context-dependent appeal.[9]

This indicates that instead of not appealing along left-right lines at all, pirate party's left-right appeal is context-dependent. Moreover, it is more closely related to sympathy for these parties than to party choice'. (Page 49)
