Today at 12:56, the European Parliament decided whether ACTA would be ultimately rejected or whether it would drag on into uncertainty. In a crushing 478-to-39 vote, the Parliament decided to reject ACTA once and for all. This means that the deceptive treaty is now dead globally.

But the key takeaway here is that it was we, the activists, that made this happen. Everybody in the European Parliament takes turn praising all the activists across Europe and the world that called their attention to what utter garbage this really was, that it wasn’t some run-of-the-mill rubberstamp paper but actually was a really dangerous piece of proposed legislation. Everybody thanks the activists for that. Yes, that’s you. You should lean back, smile, and pat yourself on the back here. Each and every one of us has every reason to feel proud today.


The Article wrote:

Many of the bad things in ACTA will return under other names. For the lobbyists, this is a nine-to-five job of jabbing against the legislation until it gives way. Just another day at work. We need to remain vigilant against special interests who will return again, again, and again, until we make sure that the legislative road for them is completely blocked. We must remain watchful.



The Article wrote:

The European Commissioner responsible for the treaty, Karel de Gucht, has said that he will ignore any rejections and re-table it before the European Parliament until it passes. That’s not going to happen. Parliament takes its dignity very seriously and does not tolerate that kind of contempt, fortunately. This is something relatively new in the history of the European Union’s democracy(...)

This whole trying to put an internet on a leash thing makes me chuckle.

Does the government really know what they are going up against? Millions of hackers that can easily bypass whatever bs they throw at the internet? People, don't be afraid of this, they want you to be afraid and that is the sole reason they are so powerful, because people fear them. In reality they NEED us more than we need them, and when everyone realizes this, there will be people with pitchforks and tar/feathers marching through DC as every congressman resigns and flees the country.

Action - reaction, self fulfilling prophesy, dualistic nature:

The harder they try to invade the Internet, the more privacy aware people will become...

Lets help this process by advocating anonymous browsing habits to people around us. But I have nothing to hide? Well it's not always about you.. It's about what the group of people on top have to hide being so paranoid thinking they need to control the masses to the extent that they try to. It's about where this path will lead and if we like our children's children to live in post WWII eastern european circumstances. It's about it being a bad idea to put too much control in too few hands. The government might be considered fairly decent today, but learning from WWII again, stuff can change fast.
