You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 3.92.0.0/16 has been blocked by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 10:52, 20 August 2024. Your current IP address is 3.92.45.30.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

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 [[Technolibertarianism|cyberlibertarianism]].<ref>((Cite encyclopedia |title=Cyberlibertarianism |url=https://oxfordre.com/communication/display/10.1093/acrefore/9780190228613.001.0001/acrefore-9780190228613-e-70 |encyclopedia=Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Communication |last=Dahlberg |first=Lincoln |year=2017 |doi=10.1093/acrefore/9780190228613.013.70 |isbn=978-0-19-022861-3 |access-date=30 March 2023 |archive-date=19 December 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221219070521/https://oxfordre.com/communication/display/10.1093/acrefore/9780190228613.001.0001/acrefore-9780190228613-e-70 |url-status=live )) ((closed access))</ref>

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]].

==History==
The first Pirate Party to be established was the [[Pirate Party of Sweden]] (((lang-sv|Piratpartiet))), whose website was launched on 1 January 2006 by [[Rick Falkvinge]]. Falkvinge was inspired to found the party after he found that Swedish politicians were generally unresponsive to Sweden's debate over changes to [[copyright law]] in 2005.<ref name=nate>((cite news|last1=Anderson|first1=Nate|title=Political pirates: A history of Sweden's Piratpartiet|url=https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2009/02/rick-falkvinge-is-the-face/|access-date=7 August 2015|work=Ars Technica|date=26 February 2009|archive-date=17 December 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191217150322/https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2009/02/rick-falkvinge-is-the-face/|url-status=live))</ref>

The [[United States Pirate Party]] was founded on 6 June 2006 by [[University of Georgia]] graduate student Brent Allison. The party's concerns were abolishing the [[Digital Millennium Copyright Act]], reducing the length of copyrights from 95 years after publication or 70 years after the author's death to 14 years, and the expiry of [[patents]] that do not result in significant progress after four years, as opposed to 20 years. However, Allison stepped down as leader three days after founding the party.<ref name=uspp>((cite magazine|last1=Downie|first1=James|title=What is the Pirate Party – and why is it helping Wikileaks?|url=https://newrepublic.com/article/world/81963/pirate-party-wikileaks|access-date=7 August 2015|magazine=New Republic|date=24 January 2011|archive-date=19 September 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150919053656/http://www.newrepublic.com/article/world/81963/pirate-party-wikileaks|url-status=live))</ref>

[[Czech Pirate Party]] entered the [[Chamber of Deputies of the Czech Republic|Chamber of Deputies]] of the Czech Parliament for the first time after the [[2017 Czech legislative election|election]] held on 20 and 21 October 2017 with 10.8%.

[[Czech Pirate Party]], after finishing at the second place at the [[2018 Prague municipal election]], held on 5 and 6 October 2018, with 17.1%, formed a coalition with [[Prague Together]] and [[United Forces for Prague]] ([[TOP 09]], [[Mayors and Independents]], [[KDU-ČSL]], [[Liberal-Environmental Party]] and [[SNK European Democrats]]). The representative of the [[Czech Pirate Party]], [[Zdeněk Hřib]], was selected as a [[Mayor of Prague]]. It is probably for the first time, when any pirate party has a mayor in one of the major cities of the world.

At the [[2019 European Parliament election]], three Czech Pirate MEPs and one German Pirate MEP were voted in and joined the [[Greens–European Free Alliance]], the aforementioned group in the European Parliament that has previously included Swedish Pirate MEPs and German Julia Reda.
