Wikipedia values accuracy but requires verifiability. If there is a lack of reliable source on an issue, then that issue will not be included.
The truthfulness of a Wikipedia article will converge to the truth only to the extent that the editors' societies allow the truth to be accurately reported.
I think that we're coming out of the Trough of Disillusionment, as shown in this graph of the Gartner Hype Cycle, and moving on to slope of enlightenment. Compare to Wired's graph here.
The 100% figure in the article is actually quoting the Open Rights Group's research; ORG are most definitely not movie studios and are campaigning against the draconian measures being thrust upon us by the movie studios.
Secondly, the 100% figure is actually referencing their sample of movies:
The top 50 films from Time Out London magazine?s 100 Best British Films
BAFTA Best Film award winners (1960-2011)
Amazon.co.uk?s 20 best-selling DVDs as of 1 July 2011
Amazon.co.uk's 40 best-selling DVDs for August 2011
and as you can see there's a definite British bias, because ORG are a British organisation.

Re: Avitarx
Wait, what? Where on earth did you get the idea that the Pirate Party's "other plank" is marijuana legalisation?
The Pirate Party is one of freedom and privacy. Both directly applicable to Tunisia.
