ACTA - Will it change our lives???

hey slutz,

have you heard of ACTA??

if not here is a brief explanation:

Anonymous - What is ACTA? - #StopACTA [english] - YouTube


What do you think will be coming up if ACTA comes Worldwide active??
Do you think it will strongly change Engineers/Musicians life?
Will the musicians/songwriter have ANYTHING from ACTA?

I think WE should go on the streets and try to stop ACTA cutting our Privacy and our entire life!!!

comments please!!!!

I'm not interested in your "hole life", just stopping piracy.

I don't tend to take take unvetted info from Anonymous, which, after all, is anonymous and therefore seemingly lacking in basic accountability.

But I have great respect for the Electronic Freedom Foundation. Here's how they analyze ACTA: https://www.eff.org/issues/acta

I personally agree with her. We do not need ACTA
While I don't agree with piracy either but ACTA is opening the door to a loss of civil liberties.
Any time a Government approves a Bill or an agreement without consulting the electorate you know your civil liberties are being forfeited.
