Here are few ways to act against ACTA, right now: http://www.laquadrature.net/wiki/How_to_act_against_ACTA

Full script:

Can you imagine your Internet Service Provider policing everything you do online?
Can you imagine generic drugs that could save lives being banned?
Can you imagine seeds that could feed 1000's being controlled and withheld in the name of patents?

This will become reality with ACTA.

ACTA is the Anti Counterfeiting Trade Agreement.
Disguised as a Trade Agreement, ACTA goes much, much further than that.

For the past 3 years, ACTA has been negotiated in secret by 39 countries.
But the negotiators are not democratically elected representatives.
They don't represent us, but they are deciding laws behind our backs.

Bypassing our democratic processes, they impose new criminal sanctions to stop online file sharing.

ACTA aims to make Internet Service & Access Providers legally responsible for what their users do online, turning them into Private Copyright Police & Judge, censoring their networks.
The chilling effects on free speech would be terrible.

In the name of patents, ACTA would give large corporations the power to stop generic drugs before they reach them people who need them, and stop the use of certain seeds for crops.

The European Parliament will soon vote on ACTA.
This vote will be the occasion to say no once and for all to this dangerous treaty.
As citizens, we must urge our representatives to reject ACTA.

NO TO ACTA.

  • People we have to stop ACTA, or the government will control all the information we gain on the internet, we wont have the power to fight back in just 10 years ! stop ACTA FFS big download sites in sweden are already down.... please ...

  • @naive54321 YEP. ALREADY BLOCKED OUT IN CANADA. (I don't know about all games, but the videos that you make of a video game your playing is not able to be viewed by someone outside the U.S. This bill will make it COMPLETELY illegal. It sucks that they had to seperate it into 3 bills instead of 1 so we have to oppose 3, which is almost impossible to do without getting at least 1 through, which has already happened.

  • Any video game video posted in the U.S. is already blocked out in Canada. Whoever disliked this video is either a music artist themself that wants more money than they already get, or are a lobbyist that was paid to come on any acta/sopa website and click dislike. Don't reject acta or you will have to go back to email spams/hand written letters to get your word out.Pray now, or you will REALLY see the start of the sealing up of information (not good for an economy $15.17/$15.3 trillion in debt.)

  • Poland started the protests. ACTA is defeated in at least 4 countries now, ad therefore possibly the whole EU

  • does anyone know if acta affects online games like world of warcraft ( private servers ), DOTA, counter strike, CoD, nfs world.... ?

  • @comcon4ever you mean world war 3 goes on the internet against other countriest xD

  • soon the world war 3 will start... the fight of free spech and internet

  • FUCK YOU ACTA!!!

  • Finland signed ACTA in January and told about ACTA to the people after it was already done. And Finland is a democratic country? It's a Big-Brother wonderland if you ask me...and many many others will agree with me. Thanks for making this video, I'll share it
