What is the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement?
How to act against ACTA
ACTA is one more offensive against the sharing of culture on the Internet.
ACTA (Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement) is an agreement secretly
negotiated by a small "club" of like-minded countries (39 countries,
including the 27 of the European Union, the United States, Japan, etc).
Negotiated instead of being democratically debated, ACTA bypasses
parliaments and international organizations to dictate a repressive
logic dictated by the entertainment industries.
ACTA would impose new criminal sanctions forcing Internet actors to monitor and censor online communications. It is thus a major threat to freedom of expression online
and creates legal uncertainty for Internet companies. In the name of
trademarks and patents, it would also hamper access to generic medicines
in poor countries.
