Motherboard is a celebration of the diversity and eclecticism of the culture that surrounds technology. Rather than squinting at technology through the lens of gizmos and gadgetry, Motherboard explores the ways it influences and affects music, art, design, film, gaming, sports, issues surrounding the environment, and everything else we find important.

So consider the floor open for group participation. It's simple: Get involved in an existing discussion, post your own related videos, write posts, comment, anything… you're now part of the Motherboard.

The Swedish Pirate Party – Europe’s anti-copyright faction – will just provide their own damn internet, and if you don’t like it you can suck an egg.

Together with technology partners, they will enter the broadband market with Pirate ISP, a new service designed to deliver consumer Internet in line with the Pirate Party’s ideals.

After snatching up The Pirate Bay’s bandwidth, Piratpartiet will launch Pirate ISP, a broadband service that will defend the anonymity and rights of BitTorrent users, worldwide.
