Today, the Swedish Pirate Party launched a new Internet service that
lets anybody send and receive files and information over the Internet
without fear of being monitored or logged. In technical terms, such a
network is called a “darknet”. The service allows people to use an
untraceable address in the darknet, where they cannot be personally
identified.

“There are many legitimate reasons to want to be completely anonymous
on the Internet,” says Rickard Falkvinge, chairman of the Pirate Party.
“If the government can check everything each citizen does, nobody can
keep the government in check. The right to exchange information in
private is fundamental to the democratic society. Without a safe and
convenient way of accessing the Internet anonymously, this right is
rendered null and void.”
