The PirateBrowser application, freedom and altruism

pirate_browser_logoEarlier this month, The Pirate Bay released the PirateBrowser, a modified version of Firefox that allows users to bypass ISP-imposed blocks on BitTorrent sites and more.

The idea is to allow users to bypass censorship, wherever it comes from, as freedom of speech is a weapon that The Pirate Bay uses to justify its existence.

The browser, a few weeks after its release, has been downloaded over 550,000 times and the number continues to grow.

The PirateBrowser is proof of the world's need for a free internet, without barriers and censorship. It is an idea that we completely agree with as long as freedom does not become unbridled and of course is not used to serve the interests of some. However, because there is a risk that the issue will become purely philosophical or even painful, especially if we ask questions like "is there freedom without expediency?" or are the Pirate Bay's motives altruistic?", it is better to stop here.
