Den tidigare partiledare för Piratpartiet, [[Rick Falkvinge]], har som enda svensk fått en plats på Foreign Policys lista över världens främsta tänkare. På sin blogg kommenterar Falkvinge utnämnandet så här:
If somebody had told me that a day would come when my name would be listed in the same context as [[Barack Obama]], [[Bill Gates]], [[Steve Jobs]], [[Bill Clinton]], [[Aung San Suu Kyi]], and [[Mario Vargas Llosa]], I would have told them they needed urgent mental care. But apparently, today is that day.
