There is the pirate party movement in Europe at least, although it seems to be dwindling and one-cause parties aren't usually very sustainable. They've had quite a few elected national and EU representatives but the copyright situation has gone (a lot) worse with e.g. the "Directive on Copyright in the Digital Single Market".
Especially at EU level it doesn't matter much who sits in the parliament when it comes to business interests. Such matters are dictated by the lobbyists.
