As webmaster who uses constant copyright content...I just index it, however I do credit the rightful owners, it still concerns me somewhat. 99% of the internet is copyrighted material. To me it's all about the right to exchange information. Knowledge is key and in my opinion this may be just another way to censor the public.

I agree. This an abuse of Treaty powers of the Congress, especially since I never heard a word about it. It amounts to fleecing everyone, everywhere for anything. Makes the RIAA look tame.

Also, forgot the link to verify and learn more about this insanity.

Also, Search Wikipedia as it seems there is a whole page dedicated to the ACTA.

Another surreptitious framework negotiated behind the general public's back. I ask the good people to stop this madness at all cost. We can't take this lying down. If passed, this treaty can drastically effect a majority of our lives! Good looking Freedomrox!

                 Peace

Yet central banks print money which is the same as counterfeiting and they can get away with it!

Exactly Nikki! The hypocrisy of these people is astonishing.

Well, Justin, Thank you for saying am good looking, Appreciated....but, more interested in how to stop a behind closed door ratification of this Treaty by Congress? Nikki, did you happen to know that one defintion for Congress is Carnal Relations, (i.e. sex)? Also, Robert, you are right, when engaging in congress with the federal govt., it's not good, not good at all. This extends way beyond the internet, but we all knew that it would be attacked from all sides soon, and now it has been. Question is this: What will we do?

Good looking is slang for thank you. I had no intention of commenting on your pulchritude or your countenance, the matter I am concerned with, is this treaty. So, with that said, does anybody have a plausible or pragmatic solution...or does pragmatics not play a factor in regards to this cause?

Just poking fun, Justin..as everyone here know I do. Honestly, just scaring congress critters by your knowledge of the situation goes a long ways. Bring the cockroaches into the light.
