SOPA and PIPA are Nothing Compared to ACTA - The real Freedom Killer

By now everyone knows about SOPA and PIPA and we have effectively put those on hold, for now. But just when you thought it was safe to get back on the internet "ACTA" the Anti-counterfeiting Trade Agreement comes along and has everyone running for the hills...

So what is ACTA the short version is; imagine the copyright laws of the U.S. now pump them up on steroids, subtract all forms of democracy and input from every country in the world, add more steroids, more fines, more jail-time all under the watchful eye of European Union suits. And that is just the sort version, yea it looks like it's going to be that bad...

STOP - SOPA & PIPA NOW - Fight for your freedom

Today, Congress holds hearings on the first American Internet censorship system.

This bill can pass. If it does the Internet and free speech will never be the same.

Join all of us to stop this bill.

Website Blocking

The government can order service providers to block websites for infringing links posted by any users.

Risk of Jail for Ordinary Users

It becomes a felony with a potential 5 year sentence to stream a copyrighted work that would cost more than $2,500 to license, even if you are a totally noncommercial user, e.g. singing a pop song on Facebook.

Chaos for the Internet

Thousands of sites that are legal under the DMCA would face new legal threats. People trying to keep the internet more secure wouldn't be able to rely on the integrity of the DNS system.
