With the death of SOPA becoming a reality you might think it is over. The fight was won and democracy prevailed, expelling this evil dictatorial tool of opression. That is unfortunately not the case.
Behind the scenes the European Union has been cooking up something equally as toxic as SOPA. It is called ACTA and is thoroughly explained in this following introduction.
It would appear that it is quite important to keep repelling these waves of attempts to circumvent digital freedom. The issue here is more than just data protection, it has something quite abstract embedded within. The internet is irrespective of borders and it should be. These ridiculous attempts to seize control of the internet are nothing less than the objectification of a global freedom to communicate and share.
And as an object laws must be applied to regulate.
