ACTA is one more offensive against the sharing of culture on the Internet. ACTA (Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement) is an agreement secretly negotiated by a small "club" of like-minded countries (39 countries, including the 27 of the European Union, the United States, Japan, etc). Negotiated instead of being democratically debated, ACTA bypasses parliaments and international organizations to dictate a repressive logic dictated by the entertainment industries.

ACTA would impose new criminal sanctions forcing Internet actors to monitor and censor online communications. It is thus a major threat to freedom of expression online and creates legal uncertainty for Internet companies. In the name of trademarks and patents, it would also hamper access to generic medicines in poor countries.

  • I'm getting sick of the US. First Prohibition of most drugs, then SOPA, then PIPA, and now ACTA? Is the U.S. actually this stupid? The United States is no longer a Free Country and they don't care what we think anything. Proof: The Government knows that we are angry at them and that we know they don't care, so they make a Petition page on the White House site to make us think they care, but all petitions get the response of "We Can't Comment". Who Else Agrees that the Gov. is composed of idiots?

  • Everybody would do better moving out the "United States." Nothing here is free. Our fucking jobs suck. Too many illegals. I don't really care about blacks being in the states anymore. But those fucking Mexicans are taking whats ours. I'm not trying be racist or anything. But when your job demotes you over an illegal immigrant who barely wants to do their job and you were doing better than them it fucking hurts. Idk about the U.S anymore. You have to be from another country to live the best life.

  • Don't you think it's strange how ACTA and what they're trying to do is freely explained and disagreed with online, but none of this has been mentioned on the news? Very worrying...

  • Who's the dumbass that's bringing us back to the dark ages?

  • @Lasmamoe not all mexicans. The ones who come here illegally. The ones who are born here are fine. But when they started hopping the border illegally is when our country started to get fucked up.

  • @iMalibuTwinn How the actual fuck did you manage to turn this into a "blame the mexicans" comment??

  • ACTA Go to hell!

  • @11STANE11 our government changed once they came here. and im not talking about all mexicans. Just the ones that are doing it illegally.
