Piratbyrån ("The Piracy Bureau") is a Swedish organization (or think tank) established to support people opposed to current ideas about intellectual property — by freely sharing information and culture. Piratbyrån itself is not involved in illegal activities, but says it wishes instead to give another point of view about spreading information than do certain lobby groups.

Piratbyrån ("The Piracy Bureau") is a Swedish organization (or think tank) established to support people opposed to current ideas about intellectual property — by freely sharing information and culture. Piratbyrån itself is not involved in illegal activities, but says it wishes instead to give another point of view about spreading information than do certain lobby groups. The organization provides guides, news and a forum focused on file-sharing, intellectual properties, piracy and digital culture, and is arranging events such as lectures, media appearances and a yearly May Day demonstration. In 2005 Piratbyrån released an anthology entitled Copy Me containing selected texts previously available from its website. The name is a play on Antipiratbyrån ("The Anti-piracy Bureau"), a non governmental but content industry-based Swedish anti-piracy organization. Members of Piratbyrån have participated in debates on Swedish Radio and Swedish Television and later also been giving several lectures in other European countries, like at the Chaos Communication Congress in Berlin.
