The party achieved notoriety during the [[2010–2011 Tunisian protests]], when a number of members of the party, including [[Slim Amamou]] and Azyz Ammami were detained for their participation during the protest; Ammami was himself assaulted by security forces while detained. Within the week after the president's resignation and departure from Tunisia, one of the detained, [[Slim Amamou]], was selected for the newly-created post of Secretary for Youth and Sports in the incumbent caretaker government of [[Mohamed Ghannouchi]]. This is the first time that any outgrowth of the Pirate Party movement has achieved national-level political office.

The Tunisian Pirate Party (Arabic: حزب القراصنة التونسي Hizb al-Qarāṣina at-Tūnsī ; French: Parti pirate tunisien) is a small political party in Tunisia. It was formed in 2010 and legalised on 12 March 2012,[1] becoming one of the first outgrowths of the Pirate Party movement in both the Arab World and Africa.

The party achieved notoriety during the Tunisian revolution, as party members declared their intention to break a media blackout on the social unrest taking place across the country. Members distributed censorship circumvention software, and assisted in documenting human rights abuses during the riots in the cities of Sidi Bouzid, Siliana, and Thala.[2]

After the revolution, a Pirate Party member who had been detained during the unrest, Slim Amamou, was briefly selected as Secretary of State for Sport and Youth in the new government. He later resigned in protest of the transitional government's censorship of several websites at the request of the army.
