Hey people, just blogging about this again, got to get people to wake up and see whats happening.

Here is the blog where I first talked about it.

Mentioning it again, because was reading my local paper, and an editor was talking about this.  (now for some copypasta)

The Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement, OR "ACTA" treaty being proposed in secret at the international level, could, and would if passed, ruin our free Internet as we currently know it. In short, this would enforce a "3-strikes and you're out" policy that would result in you and your family being banned from Internet access if you get 3 "accusations" from anybody, of copyright infringement. ISP's would now be forced by legal liability to police the web for copyrighted data, and take-down anything that would be assumed copyrighted, and that includes just about any data online since anything may "possibly" be copyrighted. So what this would result in, would be the end of all user generated-based websites. Such as Youtube, Myspace, Rapidshare, Blogs, even ebaums! Finally this would give police around the world strict new powers to confiscate your electronic devices at national and state borders. And if they happen to find copyrighted material on them they may destroy your device and send you the fine! It is time we stand up for our Internet before it is gone.
