I've always somewhat disliked single issue voters, only to become one and would vote for pro-privacy candidates... If any existed.

You don't have a pirate party in your country? Maybe you can start a local chapter

Oh, I like this idea. 7 seas PAC, endorsed by anonymous,

Pirate party is a legitimate party in many countries. Its not a joke. They fight for human rights and data protection laws.
