STOP ACTA!

Η πίεση κατά του ελευθέρου Διαδικτύου είναι συνεχής και από τις δύο πλευρές του Ατλαντικού. Στην συνέχεια μιά προσπάθεια συγκέντρωσης υπογραφών, για ελεύθερο Internet, απευθυνόμενη στην ΕΕ:

• Target: EU Leaders Who Support ACTA
• Sponsored by: Concerned Citizens 

The Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement, or ACTA, was signed by the European Union and 22 of its member states recently. Eight countries, including the United States, signed this last fall.

Called "SOPA light", it is a global treaty that authorizes the policing of the internet and its users, and ultimately, the censorship of it. This would hurt the freedom of expression, civil and digital rights, fair use rights, and the right to privacy.

Strict penalties would be enforced, even prison sentences, for violating ACTA.
