    Default ACTA: Like SOPA except fucking everywhere

    You heard me right.

    http://www.stopacta.info/

    TL;DR: We're dealing with an international trade agreement some countries have already agreed on. It's for enforcing copyright and stopping knockoffs, but it was written in secret. Basically, they tried to fuck us over on a worldwide scale. It's up for vote in Europe soon, so start protesting as fast as you fucking can.

    Do Another Blackout in Protest?
    Worked against SOPA, but definitely needs to be on a larger scale for this.

    What bothers me is that that video was posted 2 years ago.

    Its almost like they had SOPA and PIPA out to distract us, so they could work on this ACTA. Just my thoughts. This needs to be stopped too. Man they just don't stop. Of course they're not gonna stop.

    what, now theres another one and its on a larger scale?!

    you know, the more i see of this crap the more i'm getting convinced that our future might just be self-annhilation after all, cause with all the fighting over this and how much damage it could cause it certainly looks like they want to run everything into the ground nowadays. (wonder if a nuke would stop this hehehe)

    Agree but that's the thing, people have been letting stuff slip threw the cracks for to long. Here's one from 2012 there still working on it but they are keeping the people out of the loop and having private meetings. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yqa03NZX18s

    Well, if they are as good as realizing things now like they were with the A-bombs, well...

    ... then they probably will do it twice...

    (not really funny though... )
