Why the pirates are on the rise in Sweden...

For 24-hour party people a visit to the land of the midnight sun is a must. For one thing, the Swedes are serious when it comes to having fun - and at this time of year the sun never sets.

And so it is that I find myself at the Peace and Love festival in Borlänge long after bedtime, negotiating a sea of tents which stretches far into the blood-red glow of a night-long dusk . 

I am here to try to find out what it is about Swedes that has put them at the heart of a raging debate about internet freedom. More + video...

Don't miss:

  1. Internet access a human right, say French judges...
  2. German court slams RapidShare with $34 Million fine...
  3. This is the power of the Internet and why our governments are trying to control it...
  4. Pirate Bay victory will be short-lived...
