The ACTA threat to the Internets // #acta #freedom

Posted on | November 5, 2011 | No Comments

The magnificent La Quadrature du Net – an advocacy group that promotes the rights and freedoms of citizens on the Internet – has just released three videos to inform Europeans about the ACTA agreement that is currently being lobbied in the EU Parliament.
ACTA is presented as a trade agreement, but is in fact a threat to Internet users’ fundamental freedoms and to EU Internet companies’ competitiveness and free competition. It gives Internet service providers the responsibility to police what their customers do online and gives them the right to ban users without legal proces. The European Parliament will soon decide whether to give its consent to ACTA, or to reject it once and for all.

Watch all three films on the La Quadrature Du Net website.
Find more information about ACTA from the same source here – or from Wikipedia.
