    Just because they're a political party doesn't mean they can't be sued. They're in a very small minority. I expect they don't mind paying any fines out of donations, but I'd think they risk jail time as well. Perhaps they don't care about that either, though. The goal seems to be more to make a point than to provide a permanent home for TPB.

    Well, three of the owners of TPB were already sentenced to a year in prison and a fine of several million USD.

    Any attempt to attack the pirate party will only get them more votes and members

    It's an election year is Sweden so they probably hope for a lot of free advertisement as a result of this.

    of course that was not just to be good, it was a calculated political maneuver, one that I can't stop giggling when I see that cat
